Notes

Records are auto-coupled which means that first record contains sides A & D and second record contains sides B & C.

Note that labels have side naming printed incorrectly (One & Two and Three & Four) whereas correct would be One & Four and Two & Three.

See similar auto-coupled version where labels have correct side naming Frank Zappa / The Mothers - Roxy & Elsewhere.

Most of the material in this double set was recorded Dec. 10, 11 & 12, 1973, at The Roxy, Hollywood. Other portions were extracted from road tapes (4-track 15-ips masters) of show #2, Mothers Day, 1974, at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago, and the recent gymnasium extravaganza at Edinboro State College, Edinboro, Pennsylvania, May 8, 1974.

Mastered at Artisan Recorders, Hollywood.

Made in UK above SIDE
