Road Tapes Venue #1 (2CD)

The Road Tapes Series focuses on audio from the vault that is historical yet sonically less than stellar. Described by the man himself as 'Guerilla Recordings'. Frank Zappa tried to document every performance. Road Tapes Venue #1, 1st in the series, takes us to summertime 68, Vancouver, Canada, where the Mothers of Invention played Kerrisdale Arena to an enthusiastic crowd. 14 songs captured on mono reel-to-reel tape, the concert is inspired and showcases a mixture of classic Mothers and live improvisations.
