Title: New Zappa album: Imaginary Diseases Post by: the captain on February 25, 2007, 04:22:36 PM Has anyone else got this new Zappa album? It is a collection of 1972 live instrumentals. I like it.

Title: Re: New Zappa album: Imaginary Diseases Post by: the captain on March 02, 2007, 03:24:24 PM I loaned it to a friend, so I am not able to check now. But I believe the liners said FZ actually had compiled and produced it all (as he has done with countless other things, I understand), but just didn't release it, instead moving on to other projects.
Joe Travers (sp?), the current "vaultmeister," came across it. Title: Re: New Zappa album: Imaginary Diseases Post by: the captain on March 07, 2007, 02:16:08 PM Quote I wasn't aware of it. Who compiled the music on the album? According to the liner notes, "These titles are from a collection of live performances (1972) selected and mixed by FZ between 1972 and 1977...Every item was produced by FZ. All tracks were recorded live. No overdubs. All the edits are by FZ." And... "Joe (the Vaultmeister) went looking for performances by this band in particular because there are people out there who...are otherwise invested in these concerts to live in the privacy of their own sound systems." The band is: FZ Malcolm McNabb, trumpet Gary Barone, trumpet and flugelhorn Tom Malone, tuba, saxes, piccolo trumpet, trumpet Earl Dumler, woodwinds Glenn Ferris, trombone Bruce Fowler, trombone Tony Duran, slide guitar Dave Parlato, bass Jim Gordon, drums |
