RECENTLY, A CONSUMER WITH AN INQUIRING MIND COINCIDENTALLY NAMED LARRY ASKED ME:
HEY REV, HOW COME YOU OFTEN WRITE "OK LARRY" IN YOUR LISTINGS? THIS LARRY WANTS TO KNOW.
WELL LARRY, IT'S BECAUSE IN A RECENT SURVEY CONDUCTED BY REV. A. WEST, THE GREATEST LIVING ZAPPA SELLER KNOWN TO MANKIND, IT TURNS OUT THAT 70% OF ALL MALES WHO SAID THEY LIKED FRANK ZAPPA WERE NAMED LARRY. NOW CHECK THIS OUT: OUT OF THE REMAINING 30% THAT LIKED FRANK ZAPPA BUT WEREN'T NAMED LARRY, 20% WERE FEMALES, 30% ALTHOUGH THEY WEREN'T ACTUALLY NAMED LARRY, HAD FRIENDS WHO OFTEN CALLED THEM LARRY ANYWAY, AND ANOTHER 40% LATER ADMITTED TO ME THAT THEY DIDN'T REALLY LIKE FRANK ZAPPA, BUT TOLD ME THEY LIED JUST TO F*CK MY SURVEY UP.
ALSO, I'D BET THAT MOST, IF NOT ALL OF THE FEMALES WHO WEREN'T NAMED LARRY, BUT CLAIMED THEY LIKED FRANK ZAPPA WERE PROBABLY LYING TOO. BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW THAT NO FEMALES EVER REALLY LIKED FRANK ZAPPA ANYWAY. SO WHAT DOES ALL O' THIS CRUD MEAN?
WELL IF YOU'RE NOT NAMED LARRY AND LIKE FRANK ZAPPA, YOU JUST MIGHT WANNA CHANGE YOUR NAME TO LARRY. SO YOU CAN BE LIKE THE OTHERS, JUST LIKE YOU. OK LARRY?
SIDE 1 POOTS FORTH: SAD JANE - PEDRO'S DOWRY - ENVELOPES.
SIDE 2 OOZES OUT: MO N' HERB'S VACATION .
AS I HAD PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, THE RECORD PLAYING SURFACES LOOK PERFECT AND THE RECORD PLAYS PERFECT. LOOKS LIKE SOME SCUFFS OR SOMETHING ON THE EDGE IN THE DEAD WAX TRAIL-ON IS ALL I SAW. ALSO AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED SOME SCHMUCK TAPED THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA VOL.2 PROMO POSTCARD ON THE COVER WITH CLEAR TAPE. THERE'S A LITTLE SPOT NEAR THE TOP LEFT EDGE WHERE THE CLEAR TAPE STARTS WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY TRIED TO REMOVE IT, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK, SO UNLESS YOU PLAN TO TEAR THE POST CARD OFF, IT'S ON THERE TO STAY. THERE'S A LITTLE RING WEAR NEAR THE TOP ON THE BACK COVER BUT NONE ON THE FRONT. THE ORIGINAL PRINTED INFORMATION GLOSSY PAPER INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED WHICH AMAZINGLY HAS NO SEAM SPLITS, AND IT'LL CONTINUE NOT TO DEVELOP ANY IF YO' BEHIND STORES THE RECORD IN THE COLLECTORS TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE I'M PROVIDING. FINALLY, CHECK YOUR WATCH, BECAUSE IF YOU BUY THIS COOL ITEM BEFORE MIDNITE TONITE, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE. SO WADDA YEZ WAITIN' FOR, HUH?
