EVERYTHING'S EVENTUAL VINYL

RARE INSCRIBED AND AUTOGRAPHED CANADA PRESS

1975 PRESS

**THE MOTHERS**

**JUST ANOTHER BAND FROM L.A.**

In December 1971 Zappa was pushed from the stage of the Rainbow Theatre, London. He broke a leg and suffered permanent vocal damage, his voice dropping by a third in pitch. Zappa was confined to a wheelchair through most of 1972 and this is the first of 3 albums produced in that period.

This album contains a new arrangement of "Call Any Vegetable" from Absolutely Free(1967).

PLEASE READ: GRADING AND EVALAUTION

Grading records is not a ‘Scientific’ exercise, instead it is a subjective activity. I do my best to listen carefully to both sides of the record before grading based on the listening experience. Flaws, if any, that I hear will be reflected in the grade rating, and if noteworthy, will be mentioned. The nature of how records are played (i.e. physical contact between the moving grooves and the stylus tip) makes it a medium where flaws are often inherent in the process. Also, please keep in mind that there may well be subtle differences between turntables. Records are not the ‘sterile’ medium of CDs. Flaws generally range from somewhat normal quiet background noise in run-ins between tracks to more serious issues such as pressing flaws, groove wear, skips, repeats and long scratches producing consistent ticks or pops.

I try to follow a grading system similar to Goldmine where I will have NM, NM-, VG+, VG, VG- etc. I may also have combinations such as VG+/NM-. Generally, I do not sell records below the VG+ rating unless somewhat rare, in which case I will point out the issues.

There is absolutely NO Intention to, nor value in, artificially elevating a record's grading. 

If, after purchase, you find disagreement with my grading I would ask that you contact me FIRST. For example, if I have graded NM and you feel that at best the record is VG+, please, rather than leave a low rating (3 stars or less) for “Item as Described” let me know. I am not perfect and will do my best to remedy the situation.
