The trailer was later included on the Baby Snakes DVD as a bonus feature. Joe Travers has stated that “It’s sitting in the vault. Waiting for a budget to do it properly. Basically the film footage, the negatives were transferred by Frank in the ’80s using ’80s technology. What we want to do is go back to the original negatives and do it in High Definition and then create a 5.1 mix from the original masters so that we have surround sound as well as Frank’s 2 channel stereo mix. Once we get all that together, then we need to cut the program. Edit the program together, camera angles, what shows, what we are going to include from what shows or include all the shows. I have no idea what Dweezil and Gail want to do. It’s great stuff, but the process of just getting to that point is going to cost a lot of money and take a lot of time.“ [1] Two songs from the unreleased film (“Montana“ and “Dupree’s Paradise“) were used as opener for the Zappa Plays Zappa concerts in 2006. On April 1, 2007, unveiled a redesigned website, which included the 30-minute segment from the Roxy performances, which had been used at the Zappa Plays Zappa concerts, on its new videos page. The clip for “Montana“ was included as a bonus feature of the Classic Albums: Apostrophe(’)/Over-Nite Sensation DVD, which was released on May 1, 2007.(Wiki) Filmografia:
