CONDITION: Cover: VG+ Vinyl: VG+
NOTES: Lumpy Gravy is the first solo album by Frank Zappa, originally released in 1967, but not generally available until May 1968. Zappa was credited as conductor on the album cover and he described the contents as "a curiously inconsistent piece, which started out to be a BALLET, but probably didn't make it." The album consists of pieces of Zappa's orchestral music interspersed with surreal spoken dialogues and linked with many odd sound effects and musical fragments. The title was inspired by an advertisement for Loma Linda Gravy Mix. In later years Zappa claimed Lumpy Gravy and Joe's Garage among his proudest achievements. Many unusual new sounds were also created for the Verve version of Lumpy Gravy through the manipulation of sounds on tape recordings, a process known as Musique concrète. Using a then state of the art 12-track tape recorder, Zappa invented a unique electronic set-up which he named "The Apostolic Blurch Injector".
