Description

The 1st Studio album by Zappa on his own label (Zappa Records - distributed by Phonogram), it represented a turning point in his career following his departure from Warner Bros and highlighted his comedic lyrics; remaining his highest selling album worldwide to this day.

This is a pair of white label test pressings that constitute the pair of LPs from the gatefold album. Both are very clean as is to be expected from a test press (and therefore pre-first pressing); conservatively EX but nearer NM.

Customers are welcome to collect from our store in Tenterden as weare always keen to meet like-minded individuals, or we can safely package forpostage via record-mailer - please request an invoice if you wish fortracked postage at an additional cost.

(Please be aware that unless by request the store is open Wednesday to Saturday and therefore postage will only be made within those working hours - Feel free to send me any questions regarding lots or our shop).

This is a rare example of a white label/test pressing of a cult album, so grab yourself a collectors item on vinyl!
