Description

This album plays nicely. No skipping. Some light surface noise, but it does not over power the music. 

On May 15, 1970, the Los Angeles Philharmonic performed a concert entitled Contempo 70 at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. At that concert, along with Frank and the Mothers, the orchestra performed music from 200 Motels.

This is the first Zappa bootleg recording ever released and the first Zappa 'Trademark of Quality' release. Only 150 copies were produced. It is reported that these early TMOQ runs were on red vinyl, later runs on black and in various covers. The very first edition (black vinyl) had hand-drawn covers! Often you will read 'there are confirmed reports of a green vinyl'. This is it.

These recordings are few and special in that they focus on "classical" or "serious" music. 200 MOTELS LIVE
