Frank Zappa
Apollo Theatre
Manchester
February 12th 1979
This is an excellent SBD recording which is missing the last 20 mins of the show.
There are versions patched with audience sources but they are not to my taste.
I was at the Apollo just before this gig, buying tickets from the box office.
I remember the Zappa-heads beginning to congregate
before I trotted off to the Free Trade Hall:
The 15 year old Titus was better off at the UFO gig, trust me,
and at least I got to hear what I missed.
Despite having maxed out waveforms the source files seemed quiet.
Not sure how that was achieved.
Anyhow...it bugged me so I re-authored it.
Not exactly a remaster, just made it a bit more 'normal'.
regards
Titus

ReplyDeleteThe above should read "Zappa fan...etc" and not to imply you may be related to Frank.
