UNIVERSAL RECORDS FACTORY MISTAKE. This is GOOD for starter Zappa/Vinyl fans. I have 3 copies of Frank Zappa's Roxy And Elsewhere but each of them have a lower left corner bump and have Apostrophe as Disc 1 instead AND Roxy side 3&4 as Disc 2. This was sold to me by Universal over the damn pandemic and returned to me 3x until they got the order right. Imagine my joy when 4 months later, they sent me the right set. I ultimately ended up going nutty at them to open the copy and checking each one. A whole BOX of Roxy were completed wrong and I ended up with three. The good news is, the records inside are unplayed and are M-. If you wanted to get a cheap copy of Apostrophe and were curious about the Bee Bop Tango and Cheepnis with the monster movie story, this won't hurt your pocket book. I'm selling these with a low price. My frustration and insanity is your GAIN! Again, THIS IS A COALITION MISTAKE so you won't get the full Roxy experience, but Apostrophe as a disc one, which isn't bad. Both discs are recent remasters cut by Chris Bellman and pressed at Optimal in Germany. I've had these in my collection but they really should go to someone who isn't quite sure if they want to become a full on Zappa fan. If you buy these, it means you have READ THIS WARNING. I will ship these outside of jackets in good cartons. I've collected records since 1978. No, I won't take offers, sorry.
