Lonesome Cowboy Burt is between The Torture Never Stops and Bolero.
I dont know why, but watermelon in easter hay always makes me damn near cry everytime i hear it. The emotional range of Zappa's work is incredible.
i saw him a week earlier in Zurich, the playlist was very different, Zappa was playing different songs every night.... a great artist, a genius....
I saw Birmingham UK, again a very different set.
That's what made FZ the best. Different set lists, different arrangements, his own different solos nightly.
I saw him at Wembley, London and two nights later in Birmingham, UK. Almost completely different sets (maybe four or five pieces in common). Unbelievably tight band playing stunning arrangements.
@@zombywoof1015 ~ The band learning, rehearsing, and memorizing that much material for a tour is amazing. I saw Pink Floyd's Pittsburgh show in 1994, excellent show, but it was in May or June. The "Pulse" video was from that fall, and it was a virtually identical show, several months later. When you think about it, good as the Floyd show was, it was the same program, night after night. Zappa changing it up night after night, and the band doing it without a hitch, really says something about the work this band did for this tour. Again, amazing.
Frank's one of a very few who can play a 10-minute solo and still leave you wanting more.
One of the best concerts EVER!!! Frank Zappa in ´88 was at his peak... Shamefully, for a number o reasons, it was his last concert......
Check out Prague 1991, very good as well. The speech in the beginning is a bit moving.
My brain is finally absorbing zappa, what a genius. He is one of the greatest musicians of all time!!!!!!
Ahh, at last ....(hhehehheheee) you are healed !!
Welcome to humanity !!
At 1:10:00 it begins ....... something nice, where I just was, when writing to you !
"Finally absorbing" is never complete, try THING FISH ....or Best Band you never heard or JAZZ noise !! ......(them or us) ?
same. 34 yrs old. ive always know about Zappa. A friend of mine was studying his madness in high school but I couldnt get into it. I was too serious. What a shame hehe
14:29 - “Information is not knowledge.
Knowledge is not wisdom.
Wisdom is not truth.
Truth is not beauty.
Beauty is not love.
Love is not music.
Music is THE BEST.” - Remember!!
I love the mixing / tone of Zappa's guitar on the 88 tour - really pops out!
FZ is one of the undisputed creative geniuses. His juxtaposing of material and the expert execution of it, with his entire band of top notch musicians, is a joy to hear and WATCH in action. Whoever put in the time and effort to make this available - THANK YOU!
He was also one of the greatest classical composers of the 20th century to walk the planet. Self taught.
It doesn't get any better than this! Zappa is a genius!
Geez, when I was a kid Zappa was bad, very very bad, and then I chanced on hearing the lyrics "ram it up your poop shoot" and that just confirmed everything and I never bothered to pick up any of his music, although I heard he was a great musician. Now, at 46 years, I am watching this and realize that I love his music, it incorporates all the elements that I like, and it is very intellectual. These guys on tour with him look like they are having a blast playing these pieces.
He was and is pure genius....and possibly THING FISH can explain all your worries about society at large or through another thrilling broadway show !!
I would send you a link , or just purchase the album, some of the best music and life recommendations you ever got in your life !!
(hehehehehehe..... you would be "healed")
or ..... beauty knows know pain, could heal all make up afflicted !!
"What about the part where I said come on terry, let me open up your poop shoot?"
I have a degree in music industry and I can't think of ANYONE who guitar solos as great as Frank.
I'm from Spain and was 15 years old when this fabulous show was broadcasted live in Spanish TV and Radio FM. I recorded in a tape the music from FM Radio and still I have that old cassette, and I also recorded in video VHS. That changed my life and the way I listen, study and make music and play guitar. At first I thought it was strange music, like circus music with some strange guitar from time to time... But years passed and little by little I began to like it , and now I think he is one of the greatest musicians of all time.
I'm a 40 year musician / drummer & musically speaking "Zappa's mind should have been preserved until the technology is available to reveal his musical genius to the world". Zappa's release of "APOSTROPHE" is a great example of his mental musical depth that few can fathom , not just the lyrics but the bar he set that's forever unreachable even for other musical geniuses like Thomas Dolby as just one example but anyone that's chosen in the wide world of music will fall as miserably short in comparison to the depth of his music. I had the privilege to see Zappa in Memphis at a place they built to be as close to acoustically perfect as possible & that show in 1981 still stands out in the top 3 of the 973 ticket stubs I have in my photo album. Music equipment then & now is useless to talk about , we'll skip that & only say that if Zappa would have had today's equipment can you imagine?!! I've still got my concert shirt that shows Zappa's face (in black & white) on the front & he has an oven mitt that's neon green that says "them or us". Frank brought the house down w/yellow snow , Apostrophe (the crust of the biscuit is what people's ? it's the Apostrophe)!!! I could go on & on & on with my thoughts on FZ (the RED BLOODED PIONEER of so much God gifted talent put to music & lyrics) but I'll stop here for now because I don't know if there's even another "true" FZ fan out there that will read what I've said thus far about "the man" , "the forevermore music legend" , & once again > "THE PIONEER" ... Later , Malcolm "Memphis TN." Wilson 12-4-16
I can agree to some point. Truly a genius, especially if one follows 60s-80s "rock music" (generally speaking) evolution.
I read and agree: TOTTALY!
Well Apostrophe was only one album, what about Sheik Yerbouti , Joes Garage , Overnite Sensation, Tinseltown Rebellion, or a kicking Them or us album with Steve Vai ?!
The most extreme seem to be his own solos of which very many can be seen here in this video !! Watermelon in Easter Hay ...or .... Sharleena show some of his skill !!
Try "Yellow Shark" and "Life inside a piano". Makes apostrophe sound like pop-music.
Jazz musicians do it all the time! Zappa is a jazz man!
Man do I miss going to see him and his band. I went to every tour from 1975 until 1988 best shows I ever had the pleasure to see. the man was a awesome musician and awesome guitarist.
that's amazing!! i gotta ask did you get to see the bongo fury one or just the one after in the fall?
Frank Zappa was an amazing creative musician. His were the tightest bands at that time with the best arrangements. Anyone who thinks he was just somebody in a crowd needs to do more research.
Frank Zappa in my mind is the best guitar writer producer composer film master ext .
i saw most of this band sans Willis play a 2 1/2+ hr set in an italian restaurant about 12 yrs ago in the San Fernando Valley....totally magic
I was 22.. discovering Zappa ! how great !! I'll never forget !
Don't hear a lot of people say this, but Zappa's guitar playing was strong in that final '88 tour.
I have been a fan of hard rock guitar for twenty years and I've never heard anything that really tops the solos he played during this set Lol As good maybe but better? No
His playing was superlative. Definitely
Floyd Rose and Sustainiac
Gotta love that yellow strat
For sure. The Owner of a Lonely Heart solo was an absolute scorcher
Sublime concert from Zappa at the height of his genius - so inspiring!
Hey folks... this is what professional music entertainment is all about...
Yeah, I hear it often ....with my stereo full on !! Real musicians, playing real music !! ...and Jazz or IMPROV is so soothing !!
It is no commercial or pop junk, ,......at 1:06:00 ...the electric voices in notes can seem "trivial".
fan since 1966 we lost a great musician and philosopher
+Guru Karl so did I
my first show was 1968 at the fillmore east
human rights activist and MENSCH !! debater !
Seen him five different times in Chicago. Once at a college auditorium just 15 or 20 feet away from him watching him jam his guitar for about three hours. A musician's, musician. Way ahead of his time. Best thing about growing up in the seventies and eighties? Going to Zappa concerts!!
Glad I found this show, this was the last tour I saw FZ on...Wow the 206 fools that put thumbs down are taking a short cut to thinking!
This has to be one of my favorite concerts. You know how once in awhile you see Frank like he never played the guitar like never before, on a Straty to.
+Ziggy “Frappanised” Zappada That's right, Capt. Floppy Hat.
Frankincensed LOL! Hi bro. Still Zappering on. Take care dude! :-)
I do not believe anyone could play like him, maybe John Mc Laughlin !?
...but still Zappa did else , more , fast, intricately changing !!??
I was at this concert in Worcester Ma, it was great he didn't sell out for the second show, so he invited us all to stay for it. All his old songs!
There is nothing even remotely comparable to Zappa these days. His shows were always impeccable and perfect. Thanks Frank for everything you taught me.
Mr. Martin was truly the ace in the hole of the 80's era of Zappa tours. Fantastic voice that elevated everything to such a beautiful level of blend. Great multi-instrumentalist as well. Nothing against the rest of the band, as they are fantastic (understatement for sure) as per usual...especially Mike Keneally and Scott Thunes (as a bass player, I can't overlook Scott).
One of the very best versions of The Black Page, great rythm variations, crossing instruments and accurate performance
Time is suppose to heal all wounds...but I miss Frank Zappa more with each passing year. Watching FZ play guitar was like watch Vladimir Horowitz play the piano...talent connected to a higher power. Unreal.
~ Several envious people on here bashing how he played guitar. It's good; you hear him, and you know right away it's him.
I was lucky enough to see four of these shows on FZ's last ever tour, and record them with my trusty Sony Pro Walkman! Two at Wembley, one at Birmingham NEC and the other at the Ahoy in Rotterdam! Each show was better than the last!
i was on my way to work….switched on KCRW’s “morning becomes eclectic” on which they were playing watermelon in easter hay guitar solo….burst into tears….knew that meant frank had died……….
I totally agree. The arrangements for horns etc are excellent. Frank was as much a composer as performer and this gig exemplifies this well.
This is just beyond awe-inspiring,no matter how many times i listen to or watch Frank Zappa it always feels fresh,it always feels like i,ve discovered the greatest treasure for the first time,a sign of a truly great artist.
so grateful to have grown up in the time this music was created
Lucky you :(
The guitar solo for Illinois Enema Bandit, and whole song in general..proves Frank was the best guitar player in my opinion.
This show is a work of art. A collage producing a whole, a unit, an orchestra of highest musical expression and art in Theater/Stage amalgamated to a show that is in fact, in my view, a whole, comparable the greatest masters of classical composition. A master from whom to learn. Enjoy !
This is a great version of sharleena. Pointy, swinging, legato's, it has everything.
Saw this tour in London
Out bloody standing music.
Como se suele decir, yo estuve allí.Uno de los mejores (junto a los del maestro fripp) conciertos de los que he asistido en mi vida. De verdad quede completamente rendido frente al torrente de musica que destilaba la BANDA de Frank
Ike Willis has always had such an amazing voice!!!! ... and "Any Kind Of Pain" is such a great version... as well as "Outside Now" on Broadway The Hard Way"... In my opinion...
Superlativo y excepcional concierto. ¡Menuda maravilla!
Saw Zappa a few times during the 70's and 80's and you always got you money's worth, his guitar work will give you shivers, Zappa Rules!
If you don't get Zappa... you weren't supposed too
Amen, 79... and several here fit that description. Bring on the coarse language and ad hominem attacks...
Ben Holbrook Its only expected if you post any comments anymore on You Tube but I don't care-I have found some very cool people on some videos and some of the most vile foul mouthed little tough guys as well.Zappa is the greatest musical mind of our time!!A complete and total genius one of the smartest hippest and funny cats to ever be
Fully agree on Zappa's genius too. If you can soar with Zappa, very little is out of reach, musically.
Zappa--- is the man. This band was killing. Keneally is probably the cleanest guitarist he ever had for live stuff.
Fuck off Malaka!
The guitar solo on 'The torture never stops' is absolutely beautiful. In my opinion FZ was the greatest guitar player of all time. Genius.
Yeah, I admit or comply , and have you seen Jeff Becks performance < This Week Jeck Beck playing at Ronnie Scotts, 720 hp ??
friggin awesome..... and Vinnie Coliauto is perfect !
many thanks for the COMPLETE show! I saw the '88 band EVERY night at THE BEACON on Broadway! Frank had the synclavier + the killer self destructing band! Ed Mann was playing acoustic guitar on his synth percussion pads...all hell broke loose and slimed all over us.. the dynamic eric buxton sitting in my Chevy, waiting for tickets ALL NIGHT.....
His skills & excellence live is unparrelled. He was, & demanded near perfection that a musician can be. Mind blowing.
I really like the part(torture never stops, 1hour and 21min. into the vid) where Ike Wills seemingly makes a mistake, and FZ and Scott Thunes start cracking up. They have trouble containing themselves and Ike Willis has the seeming "hardest time", getting it together. I could not stop laughing and it is wonderful to see professionals being able to laugh or be ale to exibit joy while being so professional. True showmanship of understanding and humor. No denying. FZ you are immortal.
Same at 37:00 ...a little mistake from ike Willis.. but that's ok. Bobby Martin and Zappa saved the song...😊
Ahhhhh the old general admission, standing for over two hours. I remember the days. But certainly worth it for Zappa. Miss you bro RIP!
+Frankincensed I remember the days well to dude! but for other bands, I wish I saw Frank!
I remember standing for bands like Marshal Tucker and Charlie Daniels, Rick Derringer, the Fiixx, Talking Heads, Patti Smith, the Ramones, etc. I'll have to sit down sometime and see if I can recall all the bands I've seen. When I was in my late teens, early twenties I think I was going to at least a show or two every month. Music addicts we were. Lol Peace, bro!
Frankincensed Hi dude, I have just picked up my laptop from the repairers, so I haven't been on youtube for about a month now. I was the same when I was younger, I don't think I could remember every local, national, or International bands I have seen..lol.. Peace to you too Bro. nice to hear from you again. :-)
Ziggy Zappada My hard drive took a dump. Cost me $300 bucks. I need the computer for my work, so I can't go too long without it. But I also miss RUclips and my 300-plus Frank videos.
Frankincensed I would imagine you did miss your 300 plus videos... I went stir crazy without them bro. All good now though, hope you too.
Best gig I ever saw ,the first Wembley Arena show, 5 shows in the UK and a different show in each venue. Nobody else could do it.
Beautiful historical document
I haven't heard anyone better. I just did recall what several of his band members keep saying: Frank was total underrated as a guitarist. I mean how ironic can the world possibly be?
he never got the recogntion he deserved...just outstanding zappas arrangements ie as a guitar player
+Peter Benn he was put into the rock and roll hall of fame
He's pretty much regarded the greatest musical act side by side with the Beatles if you do enough digging in the music community lol.. if that ain't enough recognition I don't know what is? The only thing he probably never received proper acknowledgement for, was his guitar playing ability, even that's debatable.
@@andycobb6062 The "hall of fame" is just a marketing exercise and means bugger all. In terms of recognition, ask a random person to name five Beatles songs and five Zappa songs.
Fascinating and very complex, beautifully played sophisticated modern symphonic and jazz mixed in with over the top, hardly subtle satire. But what would his music be without some silliness? Hot Rats indeed!. And as a guitarist of 50 years, I can tell you that he was a master.
The best band you have never heard in your live :)
es un genio...y me pregunto ahora, que estuve esperando para escucharlo antes...
Just music! Zappa, the Genius!
After listening to and watching this concert, it reminds me of just how awesome a guitar player, Frank was.
Frank Zappa....... i saw him live 6.5.88 in Hamburg. He come on stage and we give im standing ovations. what a great feeling...... a lot of red roses fly on stage, a lot of slips....a great concert..... thanks a lot, Frank Zappa. You give me 200 nice partys,1000 nice moments. and this bombastic gig. Arno from Lüneburg Germany
Thanks for sticking this up. I love Franks music. There is some wonderful stuff on here. Where are we gonna find another like Frank. I miss him so much.

@@beatiquivocatisunt what a genius. A wonder of this world.
There was a melody that I've heard so many years ago, when i was probably around 20 something, and i never new when or what. Is in this show. Amazing.
What time in the video? Im curious as to which one you are talking about.
Me too...
Alex Coffin Any kind of pain Alex.
Mark lapham Any kind of pain Mark.
This concert is my personal 2012 epiphany. It's making me going crazy, amazing music!
Excellent show. Thanks for the upload.
frank was a genius
oh do we need him in this trumpian era
Him and Hunter S. Thompson
I'm new to zappa..what makes him a genius?
@@dong4176 your ears
don G basically, he was a rock guitarist that could also read and write music like any classical composer. So he wrote rock music like it was for a symphony. What resulted was extremely high art, but he also had a great sense of humor to counterbalance the snobbery. Don’t make me type more, I want to keep listening lol
there are two kind of musicians, the ones that make music, and the ones that show the way, and this man is from the two groups, so unique...
Omg I'm freaking out living all these years wondering if any parts of Broadway the hardway was captured live on film....I'm so excited thank you God for creating frank Zappa
gotta be one of the best jazz groups ever
You shouldn't categorize something like this.
Jart why not
Peter Benn It is too complex, and frankly too good to be tied down to just one category. It is what it is and that's what it is.
cone Ha. Frankly. don't know if that was intended as a pun but still. good one
StoogesOfTheFuture no pun frank zappa was the greatest
many thanks for uploading!

Thanks for posting, i will never forget this incredible concert.
Maravilloso concierto. gran acierto de TVE de dar este directo de uno de los grandes genios del rock
OMG!! Stravinsky l'Histoire du Soldat 14:55. nice.
Apparantly there's a hell of a lot of footage from the 88 tour still sitting in the ZFT vault according to mike keneally. Something from this tour really needs to be released as a testimonial to frank.
haggai samuelson You can thank Gail for that. I don't understand why she hoards all this stuff and only releases it in dribbles. I don't believe Frank would want it like this.
Still waiting for the roxy dvd. Any day now.
had this on DVD. it was burned in a fire over a year ago. i've missed it.
+haggai samuelson There's a live album called Broadway The Hardway from this tour! One of my favorites.
Saw that tour in Boston in 1988, with my brother and my wife when she was 6 months pregnant. Frank had a cold, so the poor guy had a bottle of NeoSynephrine on a stool next to him the whole show. Man, he looked like he was miserable, but he soldiered on thru the whole show.
Thanks for sharing this show there in Barcelona! Awesome!
Thank you brainphreaky. I saw Frank 7 times but never with his big band, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this video. It actually made me cry once again for the loss. I wish there was some way I could download it or buy it on DVD.
6:55 thats my dad!!!
the sax player? that's very cool to see your dad like this playing with Fank
He achieved something 'Uge.
nice
Brilliant! I saw this tour in '88 in Birmingham UK. Send my regards to your dad.
The Honest Voice of Expression. Tell the kids about Zappa!
in the hopes that they will listen/hear the freedom.
Or at least respect the Talent
integrity in Music is rare, and missed
Zappa may have had integrity and he may have been articulate spokesman for freedom and democracy, but he was never, to my mind, a great rock musician.
Atomic Lobotomy I always thought of Zappa as more of a progressive jazz, myself.
Well, I suppose if you're fan of progressive jazz, he may be palatable -- but he always marketed himself as a rocker, at least in the early years -- and most of the early stuff was supposed to be, if not rock, then satirical comment on rock. The Jazz from Hell album strikes me as a lot of fooling around on a keyboard, but nothing really coming together or sustained. He was an experimentalist, but I don't think any of his experiments produced anything really worth listening to.
Marketing, gimme a break, even Zappa was young. Marketing Pfft...
The Industry has it's mogols. I hear"d.....
Mr. Zappa chose his own path.
And, I am, not sure if I ever listened to the,jazz from hell album. I'll look it up after. :)
Satirical, F'n right! And Great at It! He saw the humor in the hypocracy and expressed it, thru sound and passion.
Listen to " More Trouble Everyday" and tell me what's Rock. :).
And yes, Jazz can be weird,true but that's what makes it Jazz,,,Aye.
It grows on ya! I'm tell'n ya!
He had to self promote so he stayed prolific. Some of his musical experiments were out there for sure.
But there is a quality in the confusion of it that I get.
To me, Zappa is the Guy that went down to the crossroads and told the Devil to go FUCK Himself. lol
Titties and Beer!
Atomic Lobotomy
Atomic, Zappa was a blues based guitar player, a comedian, and a social commentator. But most of all, he would consider himself a 20th century composer from the lineage of Stravinsky, Webern, Varese. In other words, most people have no understanding of what he was doing. And well trained musicians know, the material he wrote for his bands could be incredibly complicated rhythmically. To this day, I don't know how he got eight guys to play some of those lines in sync with each other. A super pain in the ass to play, even for top notch classical musicians.
Thanks very much for sharing this.
Thank you!
unforgettable!
genial... como sempre e pra sempre.
Thank you so much for this!
incredible sounds & xlnt camera work - damn this is awesome
RIP Frank Zappa, twenty years gone today.
Ainda hoje esse som se mostra novidade. E continua fazendo bem aos ouvidos dos que apreciam a boa música.
Incredible...THANK YOU!
thanks for this!
Artista ..unico
One of my great regrets was missing the final tour of Zappa. The CD's of it are hilarious and unreal. We'll never see that kind of modern music art again, I'm afraid.
+CribNotes I was 13 at the time and wasn't allowed to goto a gig on my own. Nobody I knew enjoyed him though so I had to miss it. Something that upsets me to this day.
tehf00n
Sucks, right? One of my teenage guitar students offered me an extra ticket for the show. I had another obligation which I could have cancelled but I figured, "I'll catch Zappa next time. It'll probably be a smaller band like the 1984 tour anyway...." Ended up being his last tour....with a full horn section!! Doh!!!
Yes, thankx for the upload for all of his fans !
muchas gracias!!!
Crazy and fantastic !
music is the best. you are missed sir.
Precioso concierto gracias por subirlo
@ R.B. Martin so cool to read your words. Nice to meet you here. Thanks to your pasion to play this music.
Hey I listen at work and it blows me away. Bolero from Frank, yes thats it.
I love Franks solo on Toture never stops and Watemelon in Easter Hay is one of my most love songs.
Frank is a genius and his band also.
This music makes me a wonderfull night shift.

"Zappa" is my pin number at my local library ... beat that! ... but please don't smite me. Thanks.
Thanks!!
just fkn great! tks man!!
Can you imagine the rehearsals for this show?
Not of this world. Their work ethics was just unimaginable.
There is an hour’s worth of video from the rehearsal / sound check from a show 3 months earlier- on you tube - search Tower Theater Upper Darby PA - I think 2/14/88
@@sneakerfacevids441 ....Thank you..
