Notes
Manufactured & distributed in UK by CBS.?1969
Album catalog on sleeve does not have the "2" prefix.
No lyric sheet insert is included (which appeared only in early US releases).
Discs are not auto-coupled, like US issue.
"The Blimp" is listed on the vinyl as "The Blimb".
The intro voice is that of Zappa, recorded via a telephone link to Zappa's studio
- with Antennae Jimmy Semens narrating from Vliet's script
over the 'phone from the 'Magic Band house'.
A field-to-studio recording on which members of The Mothers are performing
A4: "Flesh Horn" is a Vliet affectation for the 'cupped hand'-to-the-mouth (hence flesh),
used to create a 'vocalised horn' effect.
B4: The wind instrument "Musette" credited on sleeve
is a shortened version of an "Oboe Musette".
The expression 'steel appendage' guitar is another affectation for a steel finger-tube,
used as a slide on the fret.
A glass tube (or bottle-neck) is used for 'glass-finger' credit.
Drummer, John 'Drumbo' French, was not credited on this album.

My records are described according to ?The Record Collector?s? grading system.
This was originated by ?The Record Collector? to assist people buying or selling records.
Their seven standard condition categories and a description of what each one means are given below.
I hope you find this helpful.
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The records shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken and is only of use as a collection-filler.
