Negative Positive
Title: Pointless really ...
Review: I admire Zappa but this release has got to be the single worst thing he put out. He covered the whole 'life on the road' ad nauseum throughout his long career (including the Flo & Eddie line-up documented here, but more creatively & musically way-back with them in the early 70s with the '200 Motels' double album & movie. With this set, originally issued in 1992, it's like he's going over really old turf again and it's nothing fresh, enlightening or special at all. In fact, it's unfunny, tiring & a real indulgent snoozefest. We've seen & heard most of the stuff presented here before along time ago essentially; the dialog, the themes, the little music presented...including the few Lennon/Yoko live tracks which aren't magical (or even good), and Yoko's unmusical yelping & wailing is annoying.
Is the review positive or negative?
