Family man that he was, Frank Zappa opens this third volume of wide-ranging live performances by introducing guitar-slinger son Dweezil, then fifteen years old, who solos on "Sharleena." This time out the focus is primarily on Frank's '80s bands, with the repertoire also drawing from that era's releases. There's plenty of room given for soloing, with Zappa even splicing into a 1982 performance of "King Kong" a 1971 segment that includes his own guitar freakout, recorded at London's Rainbow Theater just moments before a wacko bolted onto the stage and threw him into the orchestra pit (landing him in the hospital with broken bones and a long recovery during which he was confined to a wheelchair). Stage announcements and assorted patter continue his documentation of the assorted rigors of life on the road and on the stage itself--at a couple points thrown objects threaten to halt the show.
