   I got the 40th Anniversary 5-CD version of "Zappa in New York" for   
   Christmas.  Only had time to listen to it once so far.  It's better   
   than I was expecting.  The middle three discs that flesh out a version   
   of the complete set list from the concerts using previously unreleased   
   recordings are great.  The nearly half-hour long version of Black   
   Napkins on disc four is fantastic.  Also neat to hear the piano   
   interpretations of The Black Page on disc five, particularly the one   
   that Ruth Underwood arranged and recorded at home.   
      
   There's still stuff to talk about, it just hardly anyone checks out   
   USENET newsgroups any more.
