MOTHERS OF INVENTION FRANK ZAPPA "UNCLE MEAT" 2XLP BIZARRE 2024 RARE W/ BOOKLET

$

25

This auction is for a rare double LP from Frank Zappa and the Mothers Of Invention entitled "Uncle Meat" pressed on Bizarre Records with catalogue number 2MS 2024. This copy is the pressing in which record 1 contains sides 1 and 4, and record 2 contains sides 2 and 3. Includes both records in excellent well cared for shape with glossy vinyl and flat records. The original hard to find booklet is included in this auction in similar excellent nearly unused shape!. Original printed inner paper sleeves are also included but the records have been transferred to poly lined paper sleeves for a safer transport! Center labels are the Blue/Green Bizarre labels. They are clean besides for Side 1 which has a "C" on it. The other side's center labels are in like new condition. This "C" is on it to denote his name, "Claridge" which is common on original pressings of 60s and 70s records around our geographic area. "Claridge" was an avid record collector in our parts and at some point in time his collection was dispersed into Wisconsin record bins. It's important to note that his records were always taken care of extremely well, and we have seen many records from his collection in our store, other stores, and personal collections around town. We are always happy to see his records as the vinyl is always well cared for. His taste was impeccable as well (Original Zappas, Original Velvet Underground, Original Beatles, etc!). The gatefold jacket has some wear around the edges, some marker on the cover "Claridge" and some pen writing inside denoting the side lengths. There is also some ringwear, and overall signs of use that would rate this somewhere between VG and VG+, closer to VG.

Please see photos or ask questions before bidding.

• SS  Still Sealed 
• M  Mint - Perfect in all ways.
• M- Mint Minus - Near perfect, most likely and unplayed record
• NM- Near Mint Minus - Extremely well cared for record. Probably a record that's been around for some years but extremely well looked after, but still not quite new enough to call Mint.
• VG++ Very Good Plus - As close to NM as it comes.
• VG+  Very Good Plus - Very close to like new with only superficial signs of use that do not affect playability. Only records stored and used with care will grade out to VG+.
• VG Very Good - A used, reasonable copy that plays. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of some light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still nice and playable.
• VG- Very Good Minus - A record with significant wear and marks. Records graded VG-usually have some noticeable surface noise.
• G+ Good Plus. 'Good' means pretty beat up. From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about extremely beat up records.
