Description

Zappa/Beefheart - Confidential. That is the only thing close to a title on this album, which collects early recordings done by both artists. Several tracks sound like they come from a broadcast - maybe a radio show - where Zappa narrates and offers insight on the recordings. That makes this a pretty fascinating document. The sound is pretty clear, with a little bit of low surface noise.

Side One:

Metal Man Has Hornet's Wings (from '63 or '64 by the Soots, which has Frank and Captain Beefheart together)

Original Black Napkins - Zappa in '74.

Instrumental - Zappa

The Story of Electricity - Beefheart talks to Zappa, possibly on some radio station, about what A&M thought of this song.

Unconditionally Guaranteed - Beefheart  live in 74

Gone Behind the Sun & Mundo Hollywood - Very early recordings by the Mothers, with narration by Frank.

Lightning Rod Man - Credited to Mrs. Frank Zappa

I Think My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama - Studio flipside [that's all the info there]

SIDE TWO:

Rock Around the Clock/Sandwich Song - more early Mothers at practice, narrated by FZ

How Could I Be Such a Fool- practice tape

Boogie for Berkeley - '68 Mothers.

Neon Meate Dream of a Octafish - Trout Mask outtake, sounds like the one from the album but a little bit longer.

King Kong - First version by 10-piece Mothers from '68. This takes up about 2/3 of side two.

Cover: White with a sheet of paper shoved between the shrink wrap and cover.

Vinyl: Great colored vinyl. Record sounds VG+/NM-. Any sound issues come from the recordings.
