A Token of His Extreme

*Frank Zappa: A Token of His Extreme* is the 1974 television special recorded at KCET in Hollywood and produced by Zappa, which aired only in France and Switzerland. The program, meticulously produced by Zappa for his own Honker Home Video label, includes the following musical performances by Zappa and his band: “The Dog Breath Variations/Uncle Meat,” “Montana,” “Florentine Pogen,” “Stink-Foot,” “Pygmy Twylyte,” “Room Service,” “Inca Roads,” “Oh No,” “Son of Orange County,” “More Trouble Every Day,” and “A Token of My Extreme.” In the words of Zappa himself, as he said on *The Mike Douglas Show* in 1976, “This is put together with my own money and my own time and it’s been offered to television networks and to syndication and it has been steadfastly rejected by the American television industry.”
