Frank Zappa and the Were Only In It For The Money lineup of the Mothers of Invention started their second European tour in theautumn of 1968 with a number of dates in Germany. Whilst in the country, they recorded a 35minute session for the TV show BeatClub on October 6th consisting of a partly improvised, all instrumental piece drawing mainly on themes that would appear on their 1969 album, Uncle Meat. It also includes snatches of the Five Tinos Dont Do That and Wagners Lohengrin, presumably played specially for their German audience. The Essen Music Festival had footed the bill for the groups ten thousand dollar air fare and this LP features a6 fifteenminute version of King Kong from that show. This is vintage Frank Zappa at his most creative and the sound quality is excellent.
