Tracklisting & More Information

This is the lightlly censored US version, with the REV-F matrices.

It has following censorships:

Harry, You're a Beast:- The 'Don't come in me, in me' section was partially forwards, partially backwards, and shuffled as well. [01:06-01:13]. Due to the edit's complexity, it is likely Zappa's own work.

Mother People:- The lines 'Better look around before you say you don't care, / Shut your fuckin' mouth about the length of my hair, / How would you survive / If you were alive, / Shitty little person?' were cut out, and replaced with 'Lemme take a minute and tell you my plan, / Lemme take a minute and tell who I am, / If it doesn't show, / Think you'd better know, / I'm another person', taken from earlier in the song. [This happens at 00:58-01:03.] (However, the cut lines were still on the record, backwards, at the end of side one in a track called 'Hot Poop', but if you reverse the reversed version and listen to it, you'll find that even there, the word 'fuckin' has been edited out. The stereo balance on the 'Hot Poop' excerpt is also reversed compared with the actual song. This is also likely to be Zappa's own decision.

Concentration Moon:- The line 'Also, at the same time, I get to work with the Velvet Underground, which is as shitty a group as Frank Zappa's group' was cut from Gary Kellgren's whispering [01:13]. As at least some copies escaped without this edit & this edit is different on the heavily censored versions. It is possible that this was either a last-minute edit on the US master and/or a record company decision.


This Copy :-

Condition wise, is very good indeed - EX/EX+.

The sleeve shows just a little light wear, with one small scuff on the front. The spine is still clearly readable.
This is a reverse print of the Sgt Pepper cover layout [as apparently someone with a surname starting 'McC' objected to the parody] with the group photo on the front & the lyrics & collage picture inside.
This copy is actually complete with the sheet of cutouts !
The vinyl is a loin moistening EX+ with no track separation & just a few light hairline paper scuffs preventing a mint grading.
The labels are classic silver on blue Verve.
