Frank Zappa Roxy By Proxy Finally Released
By Scott Bernstein Mar 18, 2014 • 11:45 am PDT


Zappa was backed by arguably the best band he’s played with, including keyboardist George Duke, Ruth Underwood on percussion and Chester Thompson on drums for three shows at The Roxy on Dec. 8 – 10 that were shot in film by multiple cameras and multi-track recordings were made of the audio. We’re hopeful the film version of The Roxy Concerts, considered the “Holy Grail” of Frank Zappa releases, will soon follow.
Watch a sample of the Roxy footage:
