Frank Zappa’s Final American Show To Be Released For First Time Ever As ‘Zappa ’88:The Last U.S. Show’
Written by Johnson Stephen on May 3, 2021
On June 18 2021, Zappa’s historic, final American show will be released for the first time as the new live album, ‘Zappa ’88:The Last U.S. Show’ via Zappa Records/UMC.
‘Zappa ’88:The Last U.S. Show’ will be released digitally on 2 CD or as a 4LP 180-gram vinyl box, which will be available on both black vinyl or as a limited edition 180g purple vinyl variant.
Fully authorized by the Zappa Trust and produced by Ahmet Zappa and Zappa Vaultmeister Joe Travers, the recordings have been newly mixed by Craig Parker Adams in 2020 from the 48-track digital master tapes.
The album is rounded out with detailed liner notes by Travers and Zappa ’88 drummer Chad Wackerman, who celebrated his 28th birthday on stage and is serenaded by Zappa and the crowd, as well as photos from the tour by Peder Andersson.
Fortunately, Zappa’s final U.S. show, like so many others of his, was documented and can now be experienced in its glory more than three decades later.
