long ago, you weren't much of a music listener if you didn't own a copy of this album. i thought this was a Canadian pressing (they were relatively available for a while), but i eventually discovered that Capitol (Winchester) pressed it for Warner Bros.
it's not collectable, but its condition is much better than usual. played only once, on a good record player (Goldring 1042, Kuzma Stogi, SOTA Sapphire).
i'm claiming that the jacket is NM even though there's a spot at the bottom of the spine that looks like shelf wear, but i think it was there when the album left the factory. there's a photo of this spot, so you can see for yourself.
selling this because one of the Autechre LPs i just bought came in a nice LP mailer. i figured that was my cue to find an LP i don't really need. though accustomed to listening to weird music (i think everyone should listen to a side of Merzbow now and then), i never learned to like Zappa and this reminds me of him. i wonder why?
i've sold LPs to buyers in Germany and Japan, so i know how to pack these things. will use more padding than usual, and Certified Frustration-Free Packaging :-)
