A MUST for true Zappa Fans!
I've seen a few of these "Lost Broadcast" DVDs which come from German TV and most are music performances and the condition of the audio and video is quite poor. But this one is a real exception! There are two interviews on this DVD -one is the "Edited Interview" and runs about 8 minutes. It's in faded color and not very sharp - similar to the other "Lost Broadcasts" I mentioned. But the real meat of this DVD is the "Main Interview" which is one 87 minute (!) interview with Zappa where no music is played or performed but the young German interviewer takes Zappa in many direction with his questions about the various forms the Mother took (the interview is from June 1970), what his political leanings are (well they aren't leftist) and the political issues facing America (Zappa really isn't that political). The interviewer uses a blackboard to try to solidify the facts he's getting (or is Zappa just playing him on, you'll have to decide for yourself). It gets a bit weird after an hour as...
Great Interview
This was a great uncut interview froma German television studio. The sound is fine but he filmography moves around a bit. The coversation makes up for any filming issues.
Great session for any Zappa fan.
