Frank Zappa - 1970 - The Fillmore East, NYC- The Mothers Reunion - May, 9th.
Frank Zappa & The Mothers, live on Mother’s day at the Fillmore East !
On May 9th, 1970, Frank Zappa and his “Mothers of Invention Reunion“ band graced the stage of the iconic Fillmore East in New York City once again. This was the second of three reunion shows featuring a dynamic blend of original Mothers members and fresh talent.
Similar to the May 8th performance, the setlist for this night brimmed with a diverse mix of Zappa’s classic works, ranging from the energetic “Call Any Vegetable“ to the more mellow “Invocation And Ritual Dance Of The Young Pumpkin.“ The audience was also treated to a couple of covers, including The Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie“ and The Ronettes’ “My Boyfriend’s Back.“
This particular performance at the Fillmore East holds a special place in Zappa’s history as it marked the beginning of his collaboration with the iconic singers Flo & Eddie, who would later become integral members of his band. The show’s raw energy, tight musicianship, and the introduction of these new collaborators made it a truly memorable night for both Zappa and his fans.
