    I have found out that the disc I had in mind is -

    "'Love' with Arthur Lee: 'The Forever Changes Concert' at the Festival Hall, London 2003", Snapper Music SMAC J-869.

    Looks like you already have it.

    I couldn't picture the sleeve for some reason, but of course, now you mention it, that's the one.
    As I said, I think in some ways it's better than the original - it flows well & there's less compression, perhaps. My wife thinks it's far & away better.....& she hates live albums.

    Re. the DVD - When I got my DVD player connected up to the hi-fi through the DAC in my Accuphase CD player, it was the first thing I put on & it was so compelling, we watched it right through......twice.

    I have one of the later re-issues of this. I was going to listen to it again (in my Walkman for my journey to work), but I can't find it. I'll have to dig it out at the weekend when I have more time to search for it. (I'll be listening to Genesis tomorrow instead)

    peaches was thier "biggest hit" along with lump

    i always remember this time beindriven back off of holiday by a mates mom singing that whole album sat in the back of the car...
    .. the car had been struggling a bit - i cant remember what was wrongwith it but it was a bit buggerd - we got to 'were not going to make it' singing away ... half way through the song the car was stuttering a bit, me and chris were bouncing up and down in the back.. she stops the music and shouts "we are going to f***ing make it and if you to dont shut up il leave you on the f***ing roadside" deadly serious she was for a second, until she couldnt hold it anymore and literealy broke down crying with laughter

    i still remember that every time i hear that song

    Based on the detail provided in posts 4 and 5, I hesitate to ask how many Zappa titles you have. A friend of mine who is quite a Zappaphile has a collection in double figures - I fully expect you to easily beat that!

    Barry,
    I stopped counting at about 60 and that was a long time ago! - before I started buying CD's in fact! However, my collection is by no means complete. I'm not going to set about spending the sums I used to on records nowadays, I don't make a conscious effort to look for Zappa stuff anymore so I expect it to remain pretty much as it is (if I stumble across something interesting, well that's a different matter!!).

    Nowadays, I find the most interesting items are those on the periferal areas of the Zappa universe - stuff like Jean Luc-Ponty, Rhinoceros, Jeff Simmons etc. But I guess you have to eat the middle of the pie before you can begin to appreciate the subtle difference of the crust around the edge!!

    60! - knew you wouldn't let me down! Yes, I like Jean Luc-Ponty as well ('King Kong' etc.)

    Do you like Beefheart as well?

    Regards

    No, I mean your stack of special vinyl that you reffered to earlier.
