RARE 1969 ORIGINAL UK PRESSING OF FRANK ZAPPA/MOTHERS OF INVENTION'S FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM 'UNCLE MEAT'

ORIGINALLY RECORDED AS AN INSTRUMENTAL SOUNDTRACK TO A FILM WHICH ZAPPA & THE BAND WERE MAKING, BUT NEVER GOT TO COMPLETE DUE TO THEIR FINANCES, THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED BY ZAPPA'S LABEL IN THE U.S. BY BIZZARE/REPRISE & IN THE UK ON THE TRANSATLANTIC LABEL. IN THE 1980S, THE UNFINISHED FILM WAS RELEASED ON VIDEO BUT HAS YET TO SEE A RELEASE ON DVD.

ON AUCTION IS THE UK TRANSATLANTIC PRESS. THIS PARTICULAR PRESSING HAS AN ERROR ON THE LABELS. IT HAS TWO 'SIDE 3' LABELS ON THE SECOND DISC.

CONDITION - SLEEVE - EX- : HAS SOME LIGHT WEAR AROUND THE SIDES, THE SPINE AND ON THE CORNERS, NOTHING TOO SERIOUS. THE CORNERS HAVE A LITTLE EDGE CURVE, AGAIN NOTHING SERIOUS. INSIDE & OUTSIDE THE GATEFOLD IS CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY DAMAGE.

VINYL - EX- : VISUALLY BOTH VINYL LOOK CLEAN. SIDE 4 HAS SOME LIGHT MARKS BUT THIS DOESN'T AFFECT PLAYBACK. ALL OTHER SIDES LOOK CLEAN WITH NO MARKS OR SCRATCHES. LABELS ARE CLEAN, SOME LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS BUT NOT TOO HEAVY. SIDE 4 HAS WRITING AND LIGHT PEN MARK WHICH HAS SCRIBBLED OUT THE TITLES & PUT THE MAIN TITLE, DUE TO THE WRONG LABEL USED FOR SIDE 4 (WHICH SHOULD HAVE ORIGINALLY STATED 'KING KONG'). PLAYBACK IS FINE. LIGHT POPS BUT NEVER CONSTANT, CLEAN SOUND ON ALL SIDES.

CAT. NO. - TRA 197 (SIDES 1-4 STAMPER STRA 197 A-D 1)
