Frank Zappa - Roxy & Elsewhere

マザーズ結成10周年記念ライヴを中心にまとめられた74年発表作品。パーカッションのルース・アンダーウッドやサックスのナポレオン・マーフィーたちによる変幻自在のグルーヴがぎっしり。

This mostly live set features Zappa performing with the popular Mothers of Invention line-up of the early 70's--including jazz-funk meister George Duke, Napolean Murphy Brock on saxophone, and Ruth Underwood on percussion. Highlights include the souped-up funk of "Pygmy Twylyte," burning renditions of favorites "Penguin in Bondage" and "More Trouble Every Day," and the hilarious monster movie tribute "Cheepnis." Duke steals the show on several tracks, and Zappa's guitar work and "master of ceremonies" showmanship is in top form.
