FRANK ZAPPA
200 Motels

UK UNITED ARTISTS (UDF 50003) *COMPLETE* FIRST PRESSING (November 1971) OF FRANK ZAPPA & THE MOTHERS' (with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra) "200 Motels" SURREAL DOUBLE LP EXTRAVAGANZA
IN BARELY PLAYED CONDITION DELIVERING PRACTICALLY FLAWLESS SOUND THROUGHOUT (please see detailed audio assessment below)

PRESSED WITH THE FIRST UK UNITED ARTISTS BIEGE LABELS
MATRIX: UDF 50001 A1 / UDF 50001 B1 / UDF 50002 A1 / UDF 50002 B1
THE TWO RECORDS ARE HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL MATT GATEFOLD SLEEVE "Printed and made by the E. J. Day Group, London and Bedford" WITH FRONT STICKER STILL IN PLACE
COMPLETE WITH BOTH THE ORIGINAL LARGE SIX PANE POSTER AND 16 PAGE BOOKLET
AND THE TWO ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE DIE-CUT INNER SLEEVES

LABELS: EX+/EX+/NM/NM
Clean, bright and unmarked labels with just a few light spindles on Record One but only one spindle trace on Record Two
VINYL Visual: NM/NM/NM/NM
All four vinyl surfaces are practically unmarked and shine like-new
VINYL Audio: NM/EX++/NM/NM
Both records play beautifully throughout and my careful play-check at loud volume revealed no major audio issues of note - no scratches and no surface noise to speak of - just one or two light intermittent background clicks (very, very minor and non-intrusive) otherwise a lovely copy which has seen little play (Record Two has probably only been played once)
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Clean and unmarked with just some light creasing to the back top corners and some light corner wear otherwise, a fine example and the sticker shows no sign of attempted removal
POSTER: NEAR MINT
Un-hung, crisp, sharp and fresh with no wear or tears to the folds
BOOKLET: EXCELLENT++
Again, clean and unmarked with no dog-eared corners and just light evidence of being thumbed through
