jam-packed with fun stuff like old recordings of the Mothers and pre-Mothers recordings. Since Uncle Meat was a double LP, box 2 was a 9-LP box.
From Record Collector magazine #118, June 1989 :
As with the first box, all the albums in box two have been digitally remastered and come with their original sleeves and inserts where applicable (these are contained in a bogus record sleeve featuring similar artwork to the box itself). Unlike the originals, which in the US all had heavy-duty matte cardboard sleeves, the re-issues are relatively flimsy affairs with glossy finish giving the covers a modern appearance. The discs themselves have benefitted immeasurably from the remastering process, especially the two live albums, both of which originally suffered from somewhat muddy sound but now sound totally rejuvenated. Each box is individually numbered and buyers are invited to obtain an "owner's certificate" by filling in and returning a postcard/questionnaire

PLEASE NOTE: I am not a retailer, simply a collector; with special interests in FRANK ZAPPA, RAVI SHANKAR, TORI AMOS, BOB DYLAN, THE BEATLES, JIMI HENDRIX ; Alternative, East Indian and Electronic synthesis; items were purchased and rarely, if ever played; they have been in and out of storage boxes through the years and may not be in the pristine condition of brand new. I am no longer wanting to be burdened by owning a large collection. As in most auctions, I am selling this AS-IS, as record grading is not a perfect science, and a buyer may hear or see imperfections I may miss; I will only accept returns on defective (non-playable) items; Vinyl, unlike current medium of CD, you may experience some surface noise typical in all pressings of the period and the years they have been in storage; and cannot refund minor irritating snap, crackle, pops. . If you have questions about the condition of the item please email me before bidding. OTHERWISE, ALL SALES FINAL, NO RETURNS
P.S. Because of the number of years this album has been in storage : To clean vinyl (an LP):Use a solution up to 20% isopropyl alcohol (one part isopropyl alcohol to fourparts water), and gently wipe the record in a spiral motion, using a softcloth, from the center out to the edge. Pat it dry with a clean, anti-static cloth.A fine camel hair paint brush can remove visible dust particles. To clean cover: Use dry cloth or very lightly dampen cloth…
