Frank Zappa &
The Mothers Of Invention

Konserthuset

~~ 2nd gen copy from Barber SBD ~~

From fzmoi69's 'Barber Boards' collection.
Raw DR-1 transfers in Shoebox: http://www.zappateers.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=21492

includes a tiny bit of filler material (9 secs at the beginning of the Stink Foot cut-in),
taken from fzmoi69-doctorzap's "2nd dubline version" (unknown gen copy of same SBD recording source)

And the series of Barber SBD re-uploads in FZ Shows continues with this 1974 Gothenburg, Sweden recording.
A very special 1974 concert in that sense that we are hearing 3 (or 4) world premiere performances here:
- Po-jama People
- Can't Afford No Shoes - first ever performed full version of this song (with original 'Ralph Stuffs His Shoes' lyrics). Previously only been played as a riff within other songs.
- Flambay - probably the only version ever played in a live FZ concert - with Napi on vocals.
- Zoot Allures chords - played live for the first time ever too (here, as an intro to Flambay).

Also worth pointing out, that
1) the Inca Roads Solo of this show has been mentioned in the Sheik Yerbouti album liner notes,
as the original 'basic track' to the Patrick O'Hearn bass line heard in Rubber Shirt [SY].
A version of the Gothenburg Inca Roads solo (edited) including that Patrick O'Hearn overdub can be heard in 1978 WSOU South Orange Guitar Solos Broadcast 37.40 pbuzby

2) That WSOU Guitar Solo Broadcast recording also includes a Trouble Every Day solo (edited) from this Gothenburg show, again including a Patrick O'Hearn overdub bass line.
A different FZ edit version of this same MTED solo (without P.O'Hearn overdub), hitherto unreleased officially and in perfect A sound quality,
can be found in 1976 - The Impossible Concert 45.25 SBD (blackpage-flambay).
This version has also found its way onto several bootleg releases under the name 'Munchkin Tits', ex. Zut Alors, The Mystery Box.
