Apart from this inspired combination, however, this first night in Chicago is a pretty standard affair.The first set starts off promisingly enough with one of Frank's better "Black Page" solos, but then falls victim to some routine song choices. The third performance of the "Texas Motel Medley" keeps the middle of the set interesting, but overall, the first half of the show does not leave much of an effect.The second set succeeds much better thanks to the opening medley mentioned above. The "Murder By Numbers" is even more enjoyable on tape, as it is complete with the third verse, some Ike/Sting vocal trade-offs, a full-length horn solo, and the complete input of Frank on guitar. The energy from this performance carries through the remainder of the set, pushing Frank's "City of Tiny Lites" solo to greater heights, and infecting a short but funky "Pound for a Brown". Bruce, Robert, and Kurt all get a chance for extensive solos, turning in satisfying performances aided by a funky underlying groove. Unfortunately, just as things get spacey and genuinely interesting, Frank pulls the plug and sends us up the "Stairway to Heaven."From here on out, the show is strictly routine, with a disappointing "Whipping Post" solo not helping matters. Overall, a worthwhile show simply because of the "Stolen Moments-- Murder By Numbers" combo, but without anything else worth getting excited about.- JGI do not own the music, pictures, videos, or any other media in this videoCheck out https://zappa.com to purchase albumsCheck out https://zappateers.com for more unofficial recordingsThanks For Listening and please share.
