Description
Freak Out! is the debut studio album by the American rock band the Mothers of Invention, released June 27, 1966, on Verve Records. Often cited as one of rock music's first concept albums, the album is a satirical expression of frontman Frank Zappa's perception of American pop culture. It was also one of the earliest double albums in rock music (Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde was originally scheduled to precede it by a week, but its release was delayed until more than a month later), and the first 2-record debut. In the UK the album was originally released as an edited single disc.
In 1999, the album was honored with the Grammy Hall of Fame Award,[8] and in 2003, Rolling Stone ranked it among the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".[9] In 2006, The MOFO Project/Object, an audio documentary on the making of the album, was released in honor of its 40th anniversary.
Lovely condition, unmarked gatefold sleeve, double album. There are audible light scuffs briefly for a few revolutions on track 2 side 1 and intermittently on the 4th track on side 1...otherwise , it is a fine, thick, unwarped pressing. A good example of this collectable album.
Full refund upon return if not satisfied.
