WHEN YOU BUY CAR INSURANCE, YOU BUY IT FROM SOME COMPANY WHO SPENT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON STUPID TV COMMERCIALS. IT'S WHAT YEZ DO. WHEN YOU BUY FRANK ZAPPA STUFF, YOU BUY IT FROM REV. A. WEST. BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO.

REV. A. WEST, BETTER THAN THE OTHER SCHMUCKS.

SIDE 1 POOTS FORTH: DON'T EAT THE YELLOW SNOW - NANOOK RUBS IT - ST. ALFONZO'S PANCAKE BREAKFAST - FATHER O'BLIVION - COSMIK DEBRIS.

SIDE 2 OOZES OUT: EXCENTRIFUGAL FORZ - APOSTROPHE - UNCLE REMUS - STINK-FOOT.

LIGHT RING WEAR ON THE COVER. PROMO STICKER ON THE FRONT COVER. . AROUND 1/2 AN INCH SEAM SPLIT ON THE BOTTOM SEAM IN THE CENTER. NO TAPE. NO WRITING.

BOTH SIDES PLAYED GREAT, GOOD 'N LOUD WITH NOTHING BUT NORMAL SURFACE NOISE NOISE HEARD ON ALL VINYL, WHEN I PLAYED EM' ON MY DENON DP-1200 TURNTABLE WITH A DENON MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE HOOKED UP TO A HEAD AMP THAT AMPLIFIES THE S*HIT OUT OF THE VINYL SURFACE. SO I'M SURE IT'LL SOUND GREAT ON YOUR TURNTABLE WITH THAT QUARTER TAPED TO THE TOP OF THE TONEARM. THAT JUST MIGHT BE BECAUSE AFTER MOVING IT 'ROUND 'N 'ROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB, NO DEEP GROOVE SCRATCHES WERE SEEN. A FEW LIGHT SCUFFS THAT DIDN'T FU*K THE PLAY UP. THE RECORD COMES IN A HIGH QUALITY TYPE OF PLASTIC LINED INNER SLEEVE AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE RECORD HAS SPENT SOME TIME IN MARYLAND WHERE CRABS ARE ABUNDANT, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FOR YOUR PROTECTION ABSOLUTELY FREE.

THE POSTER WAS ORIGINAL FOLDED WHEN SENT TO RECORD STORES 42 YEARS AGO, SO YEAH, IT HAS FOLDS. THERE'S A TACK HOLE IN EACH CORNER AS WELL AS A PIECE OF CLEAR TAPE ALSO IN EACH CORNER ON THE BACK. A LITTLE YELLOWING AND A FEW SMALL STAIN SPOTS. NO TEARS. NO WRITING. CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS, WHERE A GEEZER CAN EXAMINE EVERY SQUARE INCH AND AFTER FURTHER EXAMINATION, DETERMINE THAT IT'S A VERY COOL 'N RARE POSTER THAT THE GEEZER SIMPLY CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MUCH LONGER, WHEREUPON, THE AFORE-MENTIONED GEEZER WILL BUY IT IMMEDIATELY. OK LARRY?
