1995 - STRICTLY COMMERCIAL - THE BEST OF FRANK ZAPPA - 12" VINYL RECORD 2 LP SET WITH THE OUTER BAND AND INSERT - RYKO - RALP 40500 - I PURCHASED THIS 2 LP SET WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT AND AFTER PLAYING EACH RECORD PUT THEM IN SOME HIGH QUALITY COLLECTOR'S TYPE OF ANTI-STATIC INNER SLEEVES. I MUST HAVE NOT BEEN SLOBBERING DRUNK THE DAY I DID PLAY IT, BECAUSE THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES OR EVEN AS MUCH AS A SCUFF THAT I SEE ON EITHER RECORD. THE INSERT AND OUTER BAND ARE IN REAL NICE SHAPE TOO. NOW THE COVER DOES HAVE SOME SMALL CREASES NEAR SOME EDGES, A SMALL TEAR ON THE EDGE OF THE RECORD SLOT ON THE BACK AND A BUMP ON THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER. THAT'S BECAUSE I TOOK IT WITH ME IN 1995 TO THE BIRCHMERE IN ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA WHERE BANNED FROM UTOPIA WAS PERFORMING A CONCERT AND GOT THE INSIDE SIGNED BY FORMER MEMBERS OF FRANK ZAPPA'S BAND: IKE WILLIS - TOMMY MARS - TOM FOWLER - BRUCE FOWLER - CHAD WACKERMAN AND KURT MCGETTRICK. BUT I BET THERE'S SOMEBODY SITTING THERE RIGHT NOW MUMBLING TO ONE'S SELF, BUT HOW DO I KNOW IT'S REALLY THOSE GUYS WHO SIGNED IT. WELL LARRY, LONG BEFORE I STARTED BY CAREER OF SQUEEZING MONEY OUTTA CHUMPS WHO WERE BORN AGAIN, I HAD BEEN KNOWN AS THE EVIL PRINCE AND OCCASIONAL MUSICAL SCRUTINIZER. NOW YOU'LL NOTICE IN THE PHOTOS A COPY OF THE FRANK ZAPPA FANZINE T'MERSHI DUWEEN ISSUE #48. I'M INCLUDING IT BECAUSE ON PAGES 4 AND 5 I WRITE A REVIEW AND SOME OTHER STUFF ABOUT THE SHOW AT THE BIRCHMERE WHERE THIS ALBUM WAS SIGNED, INCLUDING TALKING ABOUT THIS ALBUM BY NAME AND WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND WHAT TOMMY MARS AND TOM FOWLER HAD SAID WHILE SIGNING THIS STRICTLY COMMERCIAL ALBUM. I ALSO AMONG OTHER THINGS TALK ABOUT WHAT HAD GWINE ON WITH MY GIRLFRIEND AND THE THINGFISH IKE WILLIS.   

MUCH BETTER THAN BEING AN IDIOT SENDING A PHOTO OF THE SIGNATURES AND MONEY TO SOME SCHMUCK WHO WOULDN'T KNOW THESE GUYS IF THEY CAME UP AND BIT HIS ASS, JUST SO THE AFORE-MENTIONED SCHMUCK WOULD SEND A CERTIFICATE PROCLAIMING THE SIGNATURES ARE AUTHENTIC. I MEAN THE PROOF HAD ACTUALLY BEEN PUBLISHED. BESIDES IF ANY OF EM' HAD COME UP AND BIT ME ON MY ASS I WOULD INSTANTLY HAVE KNOWN WHO DID IT. YOU CAN READ WHAT HAD BEEN GWINE ON AT THIS SHOW INCLUDING IKE AND MY GIRLFRIEND. BY THE WAY, KURT MCGETTRICK BIT THE BIG ONE IN 2007, SO IF YOU'RE A ZAPPA BAND MEMBERS SIGNATURES COLLECTOR YOU'LL HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING ONE OF HIM. SO ROLL RIGHT ON UP TO CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS. YOU'LL LOVE IT, IT'S A WAY OF LIFE.
