I've always loved this album, originally owned on cassette and played to destruction on my first sound system by Philips.....

When this album came out in the summer of 1971, our house was being remodeled. I had just moved back into my bedroom, but the door wasn't hung yet. So I had to play the album at really low volume so my parents wouldn't hear the words!

I remember listening to this album at my Mom & Dads house when 5 friends cut school used our lunch money to buy a Thai Stick for $10 rolled 4 joints and a pinner smoked it all got stoned to the max and we were all laughing uncontrollably...good times...

I had gone to college, but I certinly did not play it the summers at my parents’ home. My mom had already banned playing Ummagumma ”with all the screaming and noise” when I was in high school. We had just one car so mom was nearly always home. Thinking back, her English was OK but she knew no slang words, so she probably would not have figured out Flo and Eddie.

I got dad to listen to a few cuts off Hot Rats, though. He had liked swing and big band.

If you are not into torrents, you can compile most of the Fillmore concert with

1 Fillmore album
2 Playground Psychotics: Status back Baby to Billy The Mountain
3 Small eternity with Yoko Ono, if you wish

it runs an hour and a half

You're absolutely right. It's really a delight for the ears. In any case, thank you for sharing.

Different performances in different keys wasn't it?

Great album and one I slept on for a long time.

The line "wait a minute you silly boy" always makes me laugh.

I've never to the 2 parts back to back, maybe use the old needle drag sound fx or some other grout to join the 2

Have you now got a copy of the 2012 Universal release with the reinstated Willie The Pimp, Pt. 2?

This album was my first FZ album. I loved this album from the start, but for various reasons it took some time before I became a full on fan and got all of his albums.

I originally bought this album in a "head shop" in Washington state. The guy that owned the shop
was playing it in the store. I asked, "what is that??" "It's the new Zappa album.....do you want to
buy it?," he replied. I said "yes!" He sold it to me for $4 bucks.

Back in the early '70s, I was one of the 4 or 5 students, at my high school, who listened to/liked Frank Zappa. "Fillmore East" , though, was a popular choice at most parties.
That didn't happen, again, until "Sheik Yerbouti".
