Description
This was the third album from the musical genius and his incredible band. It has been said that Zappa had always been intrigued by the idea of producing a movie. This album was billed as the soundtrack to the movie that was likely never to be. But it remains one of his most highly acclaimed recordings, with elements of classical music, jazz, rock, and blues. It also was leading edge in production, utilizing innovative new recording techniques to produce a thrilling sound. It’s unfortunate the movie never materialized, though Zappa did release some test footage in the mid-80’s. This is one of my favorite of many favorites from this incredibly creative and powerful musician. The album was released on Bizarre Records in 1969, number 2MS-2024. This is the original release of the album. The twelve page booklet with liner notes and photos is included and is in like new condition. The vinyl is in exceptional condition with its bright original luster and just a few light surface scratches and paper scuffs that do not significantly impact play. It plays great with just light sporadic background noise. The vinyl grades VG. The gatefold album cover shows light ring wear and corner and edge wear including just the start of splits on open side of both top seams. The other seams show wear but are sharp, tight, and intact. There is some general age wear. The original inner sleeves are included. The cover grades VG.

Grading Information
I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay. I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible. I will do both a visual check and an audio check. I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can. I don’t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive. My promise is that I will never put up for auction any album that I would not be proud to play for others on my own turntable.I only use four grades in my grading: NM, VG+, VG, and G. The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or two small defects. It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static. On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album. Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading. Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there. That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen. In this case the vinyl will be graded VG. Very occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G. This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy.
Shipping Information – Combined Shipping
Shipping is $4.00 in the continental U.S. In addition, I will happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost. In fact, I welcome it! Shipping will be $4.00 in the U.S regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period.Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates. Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. Canada shipping rates have gone up dramatically. The first album will be shipped for $16. Additional albums will be shipped for $4 per album, with up to five albums able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.
The Canada cost determination also applies for all other International shipping, except that the first album is shipped for $21 and each subsequent is just an additional $5.00.
All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening. The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve. I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments. If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day. Payment by PayPal is preferred.
Thank you for looking and please contact me with any questions.
