    I watched the documentary last night. It is really good IMHO. Check it out even if you aren’t a fan.

    I’m looking forward to it. Is it on steaming?

    It was on the Amazon Prime service. Cost like $4.

    Yep, I'm a fan, and I watched it, too! Fun, interesting; I wish they had more extended live tunes (they mostly had clips).

    [Even better, though: when searching for it on Amazon, I saw they also had several other Zappa films available for streaming, including the "Roxy" concerts!!]

    That sounds like a quote from Zappa: “A steaming pile of poo”...

    I was listening to the soundtrack earlier this week, which I think has all the extended versions of the songs.

    While I personally love long live versions of songs by artists I like, in the context of a documentary it ruins the flow for people who aren’t obsessive fans.

    I have thought that such documentaries should have a website with links to the full performances of the songs/movies, as some do.

    It was great seeing Ruth play 'The Black Page' on piano
    I still flub the last section on mallets and I've been trying to play it for 25 years.
