Live At The Whiskey A-Go-Go 1968 (5LP + Turntable Mat)
On July 23, 1968, Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention took over the Whisky a Go Go for an all-night affair. FZ recorded the entire evening with the possibility of an album project. Although bits and pieces were released by Zappa over the years, a full live album never happened, and the tapes sat in the Vault for 55 years. Now all three sets by The Mothers are being released with brand new 2023 mixes in a 5-LP edition with 4-1/2 sides of music and the very last side featuring the first-ever silkscreen printed image on the vinyl for a Zappa release. Also included are liners by Joe Travers, Pamela Des Barres, and an interview by Ahmet Zappa with Alice Cooper. As an extra special bonus, a custom turntable mat is also included.
