CHEAPER THAN CHEEP

Frank Zappa

RIO/Avant-Prog

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

Wow. 50 years since this was recorded and committed to the vault, this previously unheard live recording has been released from the Zappa archive. If you know Zappa, this will need little introduction. Suffice to say that Roxy and Elsewhere is �probably� may favourite Zappa album. I think the quality of the musicianship and sound (with modern production/editing techniques) on this release tops Roxy.

The band are on the top of their game. Wonderful solos, and Frank nails it yet again with his guitar here. The album is interspersed with chat that makes it so reminiscent of Roxy. Either way it is a most worthy companion to Roxy, and if you love that period of Zappa as I do, this is an immediate favourite. Classic Zappa and a 4.5 for the sheer quality of this release.

Sit back and enjoy this!
