In the mid-'80s, one of my favorite TV shows was Night Flight, which was on the old USA superstation late on Friday nights. Or was it Saturday nights? Or both? Anyway, they showed weird music videos and cult movies for the bonghit crowd. That's where I first saw the video for Frank Zappa's "Inca Roads," with some of the most amazing claymation I'd ever seen. I liked it so much that I taped it, but that was on Denys' Betamax machine, which we eventually stopped using when VHS took over. Sometime in the past few years, I spent a good two hours trying to figure out if it had been released on DVD, but couldn't find much about it at all. Then a month or so ago I stumbled upon mention of a Zappa DVD called The Dub Room Special, and after a bit of research determined that it contained the long lost "Inca Roads" video.

And it turns out to be part of a concert movie )
