FM RADIO BROADCAST FROM FRANK ZAPPA & MOI s 1973 US TOUR Released in September 1973, Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention s Over-Nite Sensation was initially met with mixed reviews; Rolling Stone magazine called the lyrical content puerile, and Robert Christgau from Village Voice asked, where s the serious stuff? In retrospect however, the album has fared much better and is now the subject of one of the esteemed Classic Rock documentaries. In the wake of the record, Zappa and the then current MOI line up went out on the road for a short North American Tour. With George Duke on keys, Tom Fowler on bass, Chester Thompson on drums, Ruth Underwood on percussion and Napoleon Murphy Brock on sax, the group performed at Austin, Texas Armadillo World Headquarters on 26th October 73, where they put on an extraordinary show which was recorded for live FM radio broadcast. In true Zappa style however, the band did not perform a single cut from their new album. Previously unreleased, the full Austin 73 concert is now available for the first time on this CD package. 1.
