Я уверен, что материал, выложенный в лосслесс, т.е. большими файлами, не отпугнет постоянных посетителей дока, просто проигнорируйте. Но возможмо могут привлечь новых участников, поскольку все больше и больше меломанов переходят именно на этот формат.
200 MOTELS is the soundtrack to Frank Zappa's wacky 1971 motion picture of the same name,which starred Ringo Starr and Keith Moon, among others. Although it enjoyed success as a "midnight movie" in the '70s/early '80s, 200 MOTELS is a difficult movie to comprehend, since the storyline is very abstract (some have hinted that it was made up on the spot!). But even when his music is difficult to understand, Zappa includes many interesting twists and turns, and the soundtrack for 200 MOTELS is no different.
Although Zappa composed and arranged all the music, The Mothers of Invention, were joined by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (!) and the Top Score Singers. But some of the material is exactly what you'd expect from an early-'70s Zappa and the Mothers release--such as a medley containing the tracks "She Painted Up Her Face", "Half A Dozen Provocative Squats", and "Shove It Right In".
