 Rating: - Is this Mystery Disc Phase Two ?Really really great, a packed collage of tunes prior to Zappa's MOI years, slightly spoilt by track 29 but the best ever version of "Sharleena" makes up for that. Great little booklet, too. Rating: - THE FRANK ZAPPA MEMORIAL BARBECUEThis album will probably only be of interest to hardcore Zappaphiles, but if you happen to be one, it certainly delivers the goods.

A must for any fan of the late-genius or indeed the amazing Captain Beefheart. |
