You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore, Vol. 3
''You Can't Do That on Stage Anymore, Vol. 3'' is a double disc live album by Frank Zappa, spanning from December 10, 1971, to December 23, 1984. It was released in 1989 (see 1989 in music). "Sharleena" had been previously issued as a flexi disc in ''Guitar Player'' magazine. All the songs on disc one are by the 1984 band (except for brief segments of "Drowning Witch" edited in from the 1982 tour).
