IN A RECENT SURVEY CONDUCTED BY REV. A. WEST, THE GREATEST LIVING ZAPPA SELLER KNOWN TO MANKIND OF CONFIRMED OUT OF THE PANTRY BREAD BOFFERS, 9 OUT OF 10 SAID THAT THEY PREFERRED PLOOKING PUMPERNICK EL . I DUNNO, MUST BE THE TEXTURE OR SOMETHING? BUT HERE'S THE GOOD PART, THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION DIDN'T COST THE AMERICAN TAX PAYER HALF A WEEK'S PAY. NO LARRY, THEY DIDN'T GIVE ME A MILLION DOLLAR GRANT TO CONDUCT THIS IMPORTANT RESEARCH, IT WAS PAID OUTTA MY OWN MISERABLE POCKET FROM SALES OF FRANK ZAPPA ITEMS. SO NOW YOU'RE PROBABLY SITTING THERE SCRATCHING YOUR OVERSIZED RONDO HATTON TYPE OF BEMIS HEAD AND WONDERING, WHY, YES WHY, IS THAT INFORMATION SO IMPORTANT? WELL NEXT TIME YOU'RE IN A GROCERY STORE AND START WONDERING ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF BREAD THE PERVERTS BEEN MOST OFTEN PLOOKING, SO YEZ CAN AVOID BUYING IT. YEZ CAN THANK ME LATER. OK LARRY? I FIRST SAW THE FLASHBACK FRANK ZAPPA / MOTHERS OF INVENTION PRESSINGS SURFACE IN EUROPE IN THE EARLY 90'S. THEY RELEASED A BUNCH OF OTHER FRANK ZAPPA / MOTHERS OF INVENTION TITLES ON LP AND CD. YOU DON'T SEE THEM AROUND VERY MUCH ANYMORE, AT LEAST NOT HERE IN THE USA. THIS IS A REALLY COOL PICTURE DISC AND THE MOST COLORFUL FRANK ZAPPA / MOTHERS OF INVENTION PICTURE DISC EVER MADE. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF THESE WERE PRESSED, BUT I'D BE SURPRISED IF IT WAS EVEN 500. IT WAS NEVER REPRESSED AND THIS IS A VINTAGE CLOSE TO 25 YEAR OLD PICTURE DISC. THE FRANK AND KING SIDE POOTS FORTH; KING KONG VARIATIONS. THE JUNGLE SIDE OOZES OUT; MEDLEY: GAS MASK IMPROVISATION / LET'S MAKE THE WATER TURN BLACK / HARRY, YOU'RE A BEAST / OH, NO - ORCHESTRAL EXPERIMENT. I PLAYED BOTH SIDES ALL THE WAY THRU ON MY DENON DP-1200 TURNTABLE WITH A DENON MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE. IT PLAYS OK, THERE'S SOME BRIEF SOUND DROP-OFFS AT THE BEGINNING OF KING KONG, BUT THEY MIGHT HAVE BEEN THERE ON THE ORIGINAL SOURCE. THESE KINDS OF PICTURE DISCS WERE MADE MORE FOR DECORATIVE PURPOSES AND NOT FOR AUDIO QUALITY. VISUALLY, WHEN I MOVED IT 'ROUND 'N 'ROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB, MAYBE IF I MOVE IT AROUND LONG ENOUGH I'D FIND A SCUFF OR TWO. ORIGINALLY IT CAME ONLY INSIDE OF THE PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE WITH THAT CARDBOARD BACKING CARD. BASICALLY IT'S BEAUTIFUL AND PROBABLY ONLY PLAYED A COUPLE OF TIMES. THE BACKING CARD HAS SOME CREASES IN THE LOWER LEFT CORNER, BUT YOU'LL NOT ONLY LOVE IT ANYWAY, BUT IT'S ALSO A WAY OF LIFE. THE RECORD COMES IN A HIGH QUALITY PLASTIC LINED TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT WEEZE TIGHT, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ ANOTHER PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE.
