This show was 3 hours long, The version presented here has been truncated. The sound is lousy, but the performance is good. Track 1 is listed as "Envelopes" but is really a jam, probably a solo section from "A Pound for a Brown on the Bus". Track 2 is "I Have Been in You" with an intro like the one on Stage #6, "Is This Guy Kidding or What". Track 3 is just the end part, with Adrian Belew's e-bow solo. Track 4 has 30 more seconds of "Flakes". "Wild Love", including improvisations, is split up over three tracks, listed as "Stinky Finger" and "Fancy Stinky Parts 1-2". At 01:21 in track 6, a wild solo section ensues, with Tommy Mars and Peter Wolf doing keyboard improvisations. Then the first 01:57 of track 7 is Adrian Belew on guitar, 01:58-08:23 a "Yo' Mama" type Zappa solo, and the remaining 08:24-09:09 the last part of "Wild Love". Track 15 is a different, instrumental "Conehead" (and may belong last on side 3 instead).
