9. Drowning Witch
Here is the true, complex story of this version according to [BP]:

00:35 unknown 1984
01:57 Seattle '84 (2nd show)
02:28 Chicago '84 (1st show)
02:40 Bolzano '82
03:42 Chicago '84 (1st show)
14. Why Does It Hurt When I Pee?
In the liner notes FZ tells us a story about the December 15
Salt Lake City concert, so the SLC references in the first part
of this version can't belong to the November 23 Chicago concert.
[BP]: 00:00 Seattle, Paramount Theatre (December 17, 1984, 1st show)
01:50 Chicago '84 (1st show)
02:37 unknown 1884
15. Dickie's Such An Asshole
Bootleg(s) in which this version has appeared:
"Remington Electric Razor" (LP).
DSAA is named "Tricky Dicky" on this bootleg and has the George
Duke solo cut out.
[BP]: front part is missing.
16. Hands With A Hammer
17. Zoot Allures
Bootleg(s) in which these versions (until 2:24 in ZA) have appeared:
"The Eyes Of Osaka" (2 CD)
"Strange Habits" (2 CD).
These two bootlegs have a different cover but are identical.
That band used the drum solo in HWAH as an intro to ZA, in
this version, according to [BP], is shortened. Also, HWAH and the
first part of ZA come from Osaka (Febraury 3, 1976 (source: affz,
Pat Buzby)), not from Tokio. Lastly, according to [BP], part two
of ZA (from 2:24) has been recorded on May 30, 1982.

At 1:11, during Terry's drum solo, you can hear someone (maybe
Roy Estrada) shouting, something like 'Kinishinai!'. It is a
Japanese word which means 'don't worry about it', although Roy's
intonation is far different from ordinary Japanese, no Japanese
considered it as 'our language'. Interesting that the same word
is also heard on the outro of 'Dancin' Fool' (the background
vocal of FZ chating).

p.87).

22. Cocaine Decisions
The Palermo riot. Here is a translation for the Italian you
can hear in this track, MB is Massimo Bassoli (see also notes
& comments to "Uncle Meat"):

min. voice text (#) notes
TRANSLATION
1:55 FZ massimo come here
1:58 FZ bring the band on down behind me boys
2:02 MB ragazzi per favore,
zappa vorrebbe dirvi di stare calmi,
di non gettare niente nello stadio(1)
e di non ... avere problemi con la polizia.
cercate di stare calmi.
non sappiamo esattamente cosa sta succedendo
pero' cercate di mantenere la calma
cosi' si puo' andare avanti con lo spettacolo.
PLEASE GUYS,
ZAPPA WOULD TELL YOU TO BE CALM,
TO NOT THROW ANYTHING INTO THE STADIUM,
AND TO NOT ... HAVE TROUBLES WITH THE POLICE.
TRY TO BE CALM.
WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING
BUT TRY TO KEEP CALM
SO THAT THE SHOW CAN GO ON
2:56 FZ seduti per favore
PLEASE SEAT DOWN
3:01 GUY1 ma che e'?
(2) WHAT'S UP?
3:03 GUY2 hanno rotto, hanno rotto sta porta qui no(4) ...
(3) hanno rotto sta porta qui
perche' veniva in campo
allora siccome la polizia si e'...(5)
con(6) la porta aperta
non voleva entrasse tutta la gente. Capito?
THEY HAVE BROKEN, THEY HAVE BROKEN THIS DOOR
THEY HAVE BROKEN THIS DOOR
BECAUSE OPENS TO THE FIELD
THEN SINCE THE POLICE IS ...
WITH THE DOOR OPENED
THEY DIN'T WANT ALL PEOPLE IN. UNDERSTAND?
NOTES
(1) I may be wrong but I suspect MB would say stage
instead of stadium but he was a little bit confused.
(2) Left channel.
(3) Center, then left channel.
(4) "no" means no! But you can't translate it in this
context. Maybe an attempt would be "RIGHT?".
(5) Something strange here happens: I think there is an
edit or a strange mix of the spoken parts. What i notice
is that the words before the note sign (5) do not match
with the following.
(6) Here you can hear FZ saying "nig biz"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
22. Cocaine Decisions
[BP]: 00:00 unknown 1984
00:0? into Chicago '84 (1st show)
00:49 Palermo, Stadio Comunale (July 14, 1982).
23. Nig Biz
[BP]: opening part is shortened.
24. King Kong
Wrong 1971 venue on the booklet: the concert was performed at the
Rainbow Theater.
Some "Thing Fish"/"YCDTOSA series" poetry Conceptual
Continuity/Statistical Density clues.
In "The Massive Improve'lence" (from "Thing Fish") at 2:09 Bob
Harris sings:
I WANT A NUN!
I WANT A NUN!
I WANT A BURRO
IN THE FROSTY LIGHT!
In this track at 13:50 Tommy Mars sings exactly the same verses
in a Yellow Snow 79 ("YCDTOSA 1") live poetry fashion.
Is there any reason for this?
Moreover at 14:34, during the 82' section, *DENNY WALLEY* says
"oh you want kinder garden!". Yes DW, in 1982!
What really happen is that at 11:09 in "Don't Eat The Yellow Snow"
("YCDTOSA 1") DW says "oh you want kinder garden" and this little
fragment was inserted in "King Kong" ("YCDTOSA 3") at 14:34.
Lastly, according to [BP], these are the edits:
00:00 Metz '82
05:01 London '71 (Sax & guitar solo are shortened)
12:13 London, Hammersmith Odeon (June 19, 1982, 2nd show)
(Keyboard solo & 'Garden' rap are shortened)
14:34 London '79 (see above)
14:35 Metz '82
18:02 unknown, maybe Dijon 1982
23:30 unknown 1982.
