Like a tidal wave of total weirdness, the Mothers of Invention splashed down on
the Fillmore West for a series of shows in November of 1970 before washing back
into the seedy ocean of L.A., leaving the landscape forever changed (or at
least confused and offended).
Not to be outdone by the art school drop-outs and buck-skin fringe contingent
then wandering the Sunset Strip, Frank Zappa had been steadily releasing
incredibly strange records since the mid-‘60s. He abandoned the original
Mothers at the close of that decade, only to reform a different line-up under
the same name in 1970, this time including two members of the Turtles, Howard
Kaylan and Mark Volman (sometimes known as Flo & Eddie due to contractual
problems), to help with Frank’s increasingly bizarre comedy routines and,
almost incidentally, singing.
The opening set by Boz Scaggs couldn’t possibly have prepared anyone for what
was going to occur that night at the corner of Van Ness and Market, though it
did prove that Bill Graham had a pretty good sense of humor. Eager to try out
material from the upcoming 200 Motels film and accompanying album, the Mothers
don’t move in any one direction for too long; sometimes it’s as if they’re
moving in all directions at once. There are hints of jazz-fusion and
psychedelia, along with Zappa’s beloved doo-wop. They even make a brief stab at
the Turtles’ "Happy Together" as part of the groupie-baiting sleaze-fest
"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy." This is a limber bunch, but they’re at their best when
playing it straight ("Call Any Vegetable" from Absolutely Free is a prime
example). Some songs are derailed by excessive hollering and dialogue, the
delivery of which suggests the performers are nearly as bored as the audience
they’re baffling. Provoking the crowd, however, is part of the plan and
listening to Frank scold them for their indifference is highly satisfying for
anyone who’s ever stood under stage lights.
An appreciation for this performance depends entirely on one’s threshold for
long and noodly instrumental explorations accented by dick jokes. But it can
safely be said that no one else was doing anything quite like this at the time.
During an age of weird, Frank Zappa had the distinction of being the
unparalleled weirdest.

I have to track this down now. Is the 4cd set as great as what everyone was hoping? I also heard about the 2 disc set having some songs not on the 4 disc set. Is there a track list for these?

[Zappa-List] New Vine Open: 200 Motels DVD {New Source, Synch}
HAPPY ZAPPA NEW YEAR!!! [and god bless us everyone] I just got this from demonoid recently and figured some of you would enjoy a new source. (original notes)... Why hasn't this ever been released on DVD? I wondered that myself! So I took it upon myself to fill this gap and you sse the results here. This is ripped from a commercial VHS tape and then I synched the parts of the OST (thanks Wazoo!) that matched the film's soundtrack. I kept everything at highest quality possible and I must admit everything came out better than I expected. Linage: Commercial VHS cassette MGM/UA M200423 > (video) Hauppage WinTV composite in (audio) Creative Audidgy 2 in @ 48kHz 16 > Sony Vegas 6.0 capture utility > .avi file, highest bitrate > Vegas 6.0 for editing and audio synch > DVD Architect 3.0 > DVD Files. This was previously seeded at Pedro's. Enjoy. -McGrupp2000 Notes: This DVD is comprised from 2 sources; first the commercially released VHS and the original soundtrack that was released by Rhino. It is interesting to note that the soundtrack does not contain everything that was on the film and vice versa. Mystery Roach is the most notable example as the version is different in the film than that on the OST. Also some songs that are complete on the OST are only partialy used in the film. I tried to match up what I could. Attributes: NTSC 29.97 fps Region Free Bitrate 5.760 Mbps AC3 audio @ 384 kbps 48000Hz I haven't even seen it so I can't speak for the quality but I figured it being the new year (HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!) and me being semi- inebriated I'd post it anyway. Who wants it? After all, who doesn't love a suprise? Addy & promise. For further Z-related fun, please visit http://www.thebignote.com or http://www.killuglyradio.com , thank you. Yahoo!
