Frank Zappa Frank Zappa/Italy 7.4.1982

This is a live recording of Frank Zappa in 1982. It is a recording that was released recently, and the cheers of the audience can be heard nearby, but the performance itself is a very well recorded audience recording. Most of the songs are performed in medley format, but the chapters are typed at the beginning of each song. The Zappa band always attracts interest from the band members, and this recording is almost the same arrangement as the album “Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch”. The band, which is full of strong members with outstanding skills, responds quickly to Zappa’s instructions. The way the songs are switched over so quickly and perfectly is a masterpiece. Zappa himself seems to be frivolous, but he is as sharp as ever, suddenly bursting with hard guitar. The moment when the chord progression of “MUFFIN MAN” changes to the theme of “MUFFIN MAN” while the vocals are still in the final part of “CAMARILLO BRILLO”, is thrilling.
