this is impossible ... he plays the solo like he's reading it from a script ... he's playing like he knows exactly what notes he is going to hit later on .. some parts in this solo are so perfect it's impossible to create on the spot ... yet he does it like it's nobody's business ... everytime!! ... RIP Frank ... it's like you knew what the music is going to turn into in our days and left us as much music as you can possibly play ... thank you !
One of his finest solos; you can see why he put parts of it on the album. It's hard for me to put into words how great this sounds. Those who love Frank would understand.
Frank , you still the man !!! listen to you everyday . I miss your shows, never one the same. every night you went out on stage without a net. NO ONE WILL EVER DO IT BETTER, PERIOD
This is a great version, the solo is better here than the Roxy and Elsewhere one I think. I could listen to this forever! I posted on another vid asking if there was footage of the Roxy gig.
gayron - it's amusing that you say this solo is "better" than the one on Roxy, because this IS the solo on Roxy, or rather, the solo on Roxy is a cut down version of this recording. this is the complete version, and frank snipped pieces he liked out of this and pasted them together to make the one on the Roxy release. myself, i prefer frank's choice, tho it is insightful to hear the complete unedited version.
Oh yeah, at minute 1:16 it's fairly obvious that the following section is from R&E. I never knew that Roxy wasn't a full, mostly uncut entire show but I've not had the album in my hands for ~30 years to look at any liner notes. Cool info.
Rob Keyworth actually the editing is not mentioned in the liner notes. the identity of the two recordings and the implied editing is obvious to anyone with ears to hear....
I was there. I have never forgotten this solo..... mesmerizing!!

He is surely missed!
Always guitar heaven with Frank......no boundries for him!

Very cool to hear some of these parts in their original context. He was the best.
this is definitly 1 of his top 10 solos
Was at this great show in '74. so glad to hear a recording from the night after all these years
Sooooooooooooo beautiful nothing or no one will ever come close to this EVER the best there was Greetings fae Scotland
Addicted since the first heard Zappa play can't catolog his style because has them all
another awesome solo by the master !!!
Damn! Can he play ... pheeeew!
all of his bands improvised exceptionally well behind him. 2:16 on... so good.
GOOD JAMS
that is such a lovely little tune he plays there. i find myself humming it frequently.
Frank , you still the man !!! listen to you everyday . I miss your shows, never one the same. every night you went out on stage without a net. NO ONE WILL EVER DO IT BETTER, PERIOD
Makes me weep, can we please go back
Non esisterà mai più un... Zappa in questo universo, fratello.
of the many solos this was and still is one of my all time favorites - never heard this version before - gives me goosebumps all over
This is fantastic Zappa , raw. I know this is edited on roxy. I like this better. Pure.
Yah always like to hear the full solo, after years of enjoying the edited version.
the edit on 'roxy' is brilliant though, the way it drops in to that wonderful moment at 1:16, it's magic
Pure Excellence, delivered by the Best hands down.
Una delicia de melodia, relajante y a la vez estimulante, una gozada de sonidos.
Viva la buena musica. Viva Zappa.
I love the editorial decisions Frank made. Thanks
Cannot play this loud enough...!!
FRANK ZAPPA IS THE BEST!!
Fucking awsome got shivers already
Music is the BEST!
Would be great to see this ...must be on film somewhere......
Magical!
This is a great version, the solo is better here than the Roxy and Elsewhere one I think. I could listen to this forever! I posted on another vid asking if there was footage of the Roxy gig.
+Gayron Combertos It sounds to me like part of the solo is used on Roxy and Elsewhere. Zappa seems to love to edit even the live stuff.

Thanks for posting this. I was at this show. It was incredible!
Me too..... incredible nite !!!
Incredibile...ciao Frank

One does not simply listen to this at anything below 90% volume
Over the ear headphones full blast, that guy played really loud.
I think I wore my vinyl copy of Roxy out just listening to this track.

Elképsztő, hogy karmester nélkül is tudtak zenélni!

@kopy567
Or.... maybe they cut the singing part.... That would be a shame... i always like that part :)

@kopy567
Sounds like the song just skips half a second... nothing to worry about :)
Nice musi..I love Frank Zappa`s music.
