The legendary Boston performance from Frank Zappa’s peak live era during the 1974 U.S. tour, long known through existing soundboard recordings, is now finally available as a complete edition—for the first time ever—thanks to audience-sourced audio filling in the missing parts!
Held on November 9, 1974, the Boston stop featured two shows—an early and a late performance. While both had circulated in incomplete soundboard form, this 3CD set fully restores them by incorporating high-quality audience recordings to reconstruct the missing sections, presenting both shows in their entirety.
Featuring jaw-dropping performances from a powerhouse lineup that includes George Duke and Chester Thompson, this is truly the definitive edition of Zappa's explosive '74 live sound. A must-have for collectors and fans of his most electrifying tour!
