Number 5 and 27 July on the cover are wrong, it must be #4 and 27 June. Wild Man Fischer is only announced here, the album's review will appear in issue #6.

Automatic translation: To be honest I don't really know what to write about the double album ' An Evening With Wild Man Fischer '. Let me start with a clear guideline for the consumer: if you (a) like pop music from the early sixties; (b) effortlessly follow spoken American; and (c) if you have an annual income of more than NLG 10,000, then You should definitely buy this double album. If you love pop insanely , an annual income of NLG 40 is sufficient. (read more)

This is the Mothermania album review on page 13.

Automatic translation: THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION: My Guitar/ Dog Breath (Warner Bros). A Mother's single, indeed. Zappa sings to his maid that his guitar is going to kill her mother because she is so bad to Frank. The guitar is shaking loudly. On the flip one of Uncle Meat's best songs, but here the vocal part is filled by saxophones.

Automatic translation: Frank Zappa has grown so tired of playing hell for people who clap for the wrong things that he disbanded his group The Mothers of Invention. Seriously, damn it, The Mothers had their last live performance in Montreal and the final teevee performance followed shortly after. So no more performances and recordings by the Mothers.

Burnt Weeny Sandwich review.

Source: ebay

Automatic translation: A moment to pay attention to the side activities of Mr. Frank Zappa and his partner Herbie Cohen who, after all the nagging and etching of the Metro Goldwyn Mayer, people around the production of the first four Mothers records and Zappa's Lumpy Gravy did so very well with their production company Bizarre. (which offered Reprise ready-made pieces and still offers them under the all-or-nothing-like-or-not motto) and as they became more and more concerned with the mentally oppressed that the established record order found commercially uninteresting or morally debilitating even set up their own gramophone record company.

Fillmore East – June 1971 album review.

Source: ebay

Automatic translation: Frank Zappa's historiography of contemporary music is nearing its provisional completion with the filmed epic '200 Motels' (a modern Odyssey?). The full-length film will premiere in December according to plan in the European Capitals and we assume that Amsterdam is one of them. At least one ray of hope in the prospect between all those sad-mooded holidays (as soon as the Sinterklaas decorations appear in the windows, I am lost every year). (read more)

Automatic translation: On Friday, November 19, Zappa started his European tour with a night concert in Stockholm. Just before this concert, perhaps the best and most fun I have ever experienced from the Mothers and with the performance of The Band belonging to the absolute top of the past year, a number of American deserters spoke with Zappa. The deserters make a sort of radio show for the South Vietnamese liberation front and after some jokes 'greetings for the boys', and nice stories, a question about desertion as a tactic followed.

Automatic translation: I think '200 Motels' is an extremely bad movie. For a few reasons: (1) the school cabaret-like nonsense: (2) hellish acts of protagonists Howard Kaylan and [Mike] Volman: (3) the way in which Zappa believes he should contribute to the sexual revolution: (4) ) the film's implicit message that reads: 'Zappa is a genius'.
