Frank Zappa in Amougies - Festival Actuel 1969 (VIDEO)
Haven't watched it entirely yet but it seems as if the audio and the video not necessarily match 
Probably more interesting for the Beefheart appearances than those of FZ 
So maybe just another case of Not sure what to make of this...............

Yeah, I've listened to Zappa jamming with Pink Floyd at Amougies and although it's weird that he tried to deny it, I fully understand why he'd wish he
hadn't tried it.

Yeah I've listened to PF and FZ previously - its a bad mix of Space rock and Chungas revenge lol
Maybe it should be called Chunga in Space

That sofa cover is not bad. But I'm not sure I like that really floral piano style.
I've had a copy of that BBC documentary for a long time. My wife and I moved from London to Adelaide in 1992 and a little later my brother-in-law
recorded it on VHS and posted me a copy. Later on I transferred it to a DVD, which also has transfers of The Amazing Mr Bickford and the Uncle Meat
Movie. The less said about that last one, the better. That movie is probably even worse than The World's Greatest Sinner.

Yeah, some of Bickford’s visions are pretty disturbing, but his stop motion stuff is incredible. I was going to say amazing, but you might have
thought I was kidding. It’s uncanny how well Zappa’s music goes with it.

Bickfords stop motion looks more amasing after all these uears
Nothing wrong with Kidding around

Very interesting history - knew of Wazoo but not that it went back to 1969 although Zappa is well know to reuse themes

Great vid on WOIIFTM, including a copy of the 1968 Oz version, I have never seen one in the flesh but am always on the look out for one- Australia

Only 2 listed for sale in Discogs $280 &$500 bucks, I'll keep looking
Downside is that it was not a gatefold.
