Album Notes
Personnel includes: Frank Zappa (vocals, guitar); Mark Volman, Howard Kaylan (vocals); Steve Vai, Adrian Belew (guitar); Ike Willis, Jean Luc-Ponty (violin); Arthur Barrow, Patrick O'Hearn (bass); Terry Bozzio (drums).
Disc 1 was recorded from 1970-1988 and is dedicated to songs dealing with the topic of sex. It contains nine new tracks. Disc 2 documents several of Zappa's notorious Halloween concerts and contains five previously unreleased tracks.
This wraps up Frank Zappa's series of two-disc sets chronicling all manner of previously unreleased live recordings from throughout the entirety of his performing career (coming to a total of over twelve hours!). This time out there's actual thematic unity linking the entire proceedings. The theme? Sex, of course. From locker-room jokes to anti-censorship rants, it runs the entire spectrum. "Make A Sex Noise" and "Tracy Is A Snob" even feature some of the female citizens of, respectively, Binghamton, New York and Salt Lake City, Utah, voluntarily coming up on stage and making--you guessed it--sex noises to the accompaniment of the band. If there's a subtext here, it's the joyful coming together of these bands and their audiences. These are performances full of grit and edgy breathlessness as only live-on-stage can be.
