1995/03/31 radio show on kpfa radio, berkeley

This program, 'They Saved Zappa's Moustache' (also known as 'Zapped' as coined by co-creator of the program Don Joyce of Negativland) is the full, official, re-mastered release of this sound collage show mixed live on the air by Don Joyce and Phineas Narco (of The National Cynical Network).
It was broadcast in March of 1995 on Negativland's KPFA radio show, 'Over the Edge'.
It is an almost 5-hour experimental remix of, and tribute to, Frank Zappa and his music. The program primarily focused on the music Frank Zappa created early on in his career.
It is available for the first time in lossless (and other) formats on a name-your-own-price basis at The National Cynical Network's bandcamp site.
This program was recorded directly from the KPFA headphone feed (at the time of broadcast) onto Hi-Fi VCR tape, and directly transferred from that master to this digital copy for maximum sound fidelity.
