Zappa, Frank - Bongo Fury (50th Anniversary Edition) Zappa, Frank
Bongo Fury is made up of mostly live recordings from the Armadillo Headquarters in Austin, TX, along with a few studio recordings from The Record Plant in Los Angeles. The album is a memorable addition to the Zappa Catalog and the last to feature the band name “Mothers” before it was retired in 1976.
This 50th Anniversary Edition features all analog mastering of the main album by Bernie Grundman
Super Deluxe Edition: This Edition presents 5 CDs of material (roughly 80% unreleased) including studio outtakes and live tracks plus the two Armadillo concerts complete and remixed from the original 16-Track Masters. Also includes unseen photos and liner notes from band member, Denny Walley, plus Vaultmeister Joe Travers. Blu-Ray features new Dolby Atmos, 5.1 mixes, and high-resolution stereo audio with bonus surround experiences from Zappa’s Vault.
2LP Edition: This edition includes a bonus record with highlights from the 6-disc box set, a lithograph print, plus booklet featuring unseen photos and liner notes from band member, Denny Walley, and Vaultmeister Joe Travers.
