Frank Zappa/England,UK 1978

During the Euro & US tour that started on August 26, 1978, the performance at the annual outdoor festival “Knebworth Festival” on September 9th was recorded for 1 hour and 30 minutes on a stereo sound board from the broadcast master. Complete recording. Up until now, there have been sources from some FM radio masters and audience sound sources, but this time the soundboard source from the pre-master has been recorded directly and digitally remastered, making it the best song ever. Here in quality. This was the beginning of the tour, which started two weeks ago, and the band was getting more organized, and the band had a sense of openness outdoors, and the staging was solid and at a good tempo throughout. Another thing worth checking out is Vinny Colaiuta, who joined after auditioning to replace Terry Bozzio.Although he was only 22 years old at the time, he was already showing off his technical drumming skills throughout his long career. Since this is the starting point, the performance is a must-see. The set also consisted mainly of strong rock songs such as “Sheikh Yabooti”, and the relaxed play by the top-notch technical group was truly impressive. DISC ONE : 01. Knick Knack Intro/02.
