Sorry, couldn't get the link to work.

https://www.rollingstone.com/t/frank-zappa/" rel="nofollow - Frank Zappa ’s final U.S. concert — a March 25th, 1988 gig at New York’s Nassau Coliseum — is the next archival release from the Zappa Trust and UMe.

Zappa ’88: The Last U.S. Show, due out June 18th, marks the first-ever posthumous release of a live album from the guitar legend’s 1988 touring band and boasts 29 unreleased recordings from the concert, plus a pair of tracks culled from the same tour: Covers of the Allman Brothers Band’s “Whipping Post” from the March 16th show in Providence, Rhode Island, and Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” from the March 23rd Towson, Maryland, show.

I've been hoping for an 88 show. I won't turn away now!

Apparently includes some Beatle songs and the Bolero.

The latter had to be removed from the Best Band You've Never Heard In Your Life album in some regions (Europe, I believe).

I hope all these tunes are included here.

It's crazy to think Zappa was already finishing up literally two months after I was born.

I'm late to the prog party in all the ways possible lol.
