Description

Zappa Records 2 (ZR-3835-1), stellar re-presentation of this all-time statement of musical, lyrical & conceptual genius.
Sealed, new - the second lp is one side of related goodies, previously unreleased. Includes the very elusive libretto which I'd never been able to acquire through numerous previous copies.
