Track 1 is the bit that appears on Stage #1 just before "Ruthie-Ruthie" (Passaic, New Jersey - November 8, 1974).
Track 2 is a soundboard from Munich 31-Mar-1979 (early show).
Tracks 3-4 are live in Poughkeepsie, New York, 21-Sep-1978 (parts also appear on Project/Object).
Track 5 is from an unknown concert in February 1977.

There is a short dialogue by John Smothers right before this track, and there is another dialog by Frank right after the track. (They are edited out on Apocrypha.) They are both talking about the song "Dong Work", and the origin is unknown. Might be from an unsurfaced television or radio broadcast.

Track 6 is the Stage #3 version - without George Duke's solo.
Track 7 is from the late show in Santa Monica on 11-Dec-1980 - a soundboard recording.
Track 8 is an excerpt from "German Lunch" on Stage #5, but as the Stage version is heavily edited, this contains some additional material.
Track 9 is an out-take from 200 Motels; its real title is "What's the Name of Your Group?".
Track 10 is from the late show in Stoneybrook on 15-Oct-1978, probably - an improvisation, from "A Pound for a Brown on the Bus", where a band member sings "I can't get me no ... satisfaction" over kind of a punk vamp.
Track 11, the title track, is the famous one - a late 1960s commercial for Remington electric razors, which was never used: a speeded-up, multi-tracked Linda Ronstadt and a Zappa saying that the lectric razor "cleans you, thrills you ... may even keep you from getting busted".
