A LITTLE WHILE AGO, SOME OLD CODGER WHO CLAIMED HIS NAME WASN'T LARRY TOLD ME:

HI REVEREND. UNLIKE WHAT YOU'VE BEEN SAYING, MY NAME ISN'T LARRY AND I DO LIKE FRANK ZAPPA. FURTHERMORE, I DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS, NEVER DID, SO THERE WAS NEVER ANYBODY WHO HAD EVER CALLED ME LARRY ANYWAY. THAT'S RIGHT, I'VE BEEN TO PLENTY OF FRANK ZAPPA CONCERTS. I REMEMBER GOING TO ONE WHERE HIM AND CAPTAIN BEEFHEART HAD A GROSS OUT CONTEST. THE CAPTAIN SH*T ON STAGE AND ZAPPA ATE IT. SINCERELY, SOME OLD CODGER NOT NAMED LARRY.

SIDE ONE CONTAINS: THE FLOPPY BOOT STOMP - TROPICAL HOT DOG NIGHT - ICE ROSE - HARRY IRENE - YOU KNOW YOU'RE A MAN - BAT CHAIN PULLER.

SIDE 2 CONTAINS: WHEN I SEE MOMMY I FEEL LIKE A MUMMY - OWED T' ALEX - CANDLE MAMBO - LOVE LIES - SUCTION PRINTS - APES-MA.

BOTH SIDES SOUND PERFECT, THE WAY THEY SOUNDED 40 YEARS AGO WHEN THE RECORD WAS MADE. THE RECORD LOOKS BEAUTIFUL, VISUALLY I DON'T EVEN SEE ANY SCUFFS AND I'M TALKING ABOUT LOOKING AT IT WHILE WEARING A PAIR OF GEEZER STYLE READING GLASSES. NO SPINDLE MARKS EITHER. THE RECORD INFORMATION SHEET HAS SOME YELLOWING AS WELL AS THE GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET. BUT WHO CARES ABOUT GENERIC CARDBOARD JACKETS ANYWAY? THE RECORD COMES IN A HIGH QUALITY COLLECTOR'S TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE. BUT WAIT...., THERE'S MORE...., BECAUSE IF YOU BUY BEFORE MIDNITE TONITE, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE. THE PHOTO HAS A SMALL CREASE IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER, SOME INDENTATIONS AND SCUFFS. IT'S AN AUTHENTIC WARNER BROS PROMO PHOTO, NOT A COY OR SCAN. CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS AND BUY IT NOW. OK LARRY?
