Frank Zappa
Palais des Sports, Paris, France
8-Mar 1976
FM, A/A-
"all-in-one" & speed corrected
Even if we don't have the complete show here yet, I thought it'd be a good idea to have all separate segments of the FM recordings of this show currently seeded on this tracker,
put together in one seed, and also brought in line speedwise.
Assuming that the most recent re-broadcast of the Zoot Allures fragment in the "1994 Rythme et Raison" (France Culture) program - see source 3 - has not suffered any pitch alterations yet, I took the opportunity to speed adjust all other parts (BengoFury seed and CosmikD fills) accordingly.
Let's all hope that Radio France will soon give us the pleasure to get to hear the complete concert, and without any "radio host" babbling over the music.
Aside from all the annoying talk over, it's a great show.
Just listen to the gorgeous renditions of Filthy Habits, Black Napkins or Zoot Allures ...
IMO Radio France just has missed a great opportunity to celebrate the 30th anniversary of this show in due fashion. Perhaps a 31th or 32th anniversary then ...

My tape had some portions of the Aud recording as fillers, this here is only from
the FM source. Is there really an 85 min FM recording out there?
The guy who's trying to translate parts of Franks talking is wonderful in a way,
but he's really just destroying it... however, practise your French & have fun :)
