1974-09-16 NDR-2 Hamburg Germany
FZ as D.J.
This recording sounds like it was made in the radio station control room rather than the broadcast version.
FZ comments are heard which were not broadcasted. He comments, while the music is playing, about the smoke dectector in the bathroom and that the song is going to end soon. A phone ringing can sometimes be heard while the
record is playing and the broadcast mic would have been off. The phone ringing also can be heard during talk time when
the broadcast mic would have been on. FZ says goodbye and mic handling sounds can be heard as someone carries the recorder and mic away while the last song is being played. This very well could have been recorded by FZ. I got it from UG at ZARK many years ago. UG ran the Zappa Archives, was good friends with FZ and had many rare tapes.
