Frank Zappa - The Rehearsal Broadcast - DOUBLE LP GATEFOLD

Frank Zappa’s final tour featuring his own band took place in 1988 to rapturous plaudits from fans and critics alike. Taking in US and European dates. One of the tour’s finest shows was played at The Tower Theatre, Upper Darby in Philadelphia, a concert broadcast locally on FM Radio, and for which not just the full performance was included, but the rehearsals and sound check were likewise transmitted across the airwaves. This release features this fascinating rehearsal broadcast along with another unique feature of this particular date; the audience request section, during which the band play numbers chosen by audience members during the second half of the gig.
