Description
This is overage from my personal collection...
Three years ago, I set out to compile a PERFECT collection of first pressings of all of Frank Zappa's music. If you know and love Zappa, you understand what such an undertaking ultimately was.
When available, I tried to buy sealed copies. I learned VERY quickly that 2nd pressings were often sealed in the EXACT same sleeves that first pressing were!!!!!
(You can imagine the disappointment of opening up a $150-200, sealed record to discover that it is not what you want!!! But I digress...)
Now that I have finally completed my personal set (Yes, I DID IT!!!!) :-) I am finally selling off some of the stuff that I have left over.
This copy of The Grand Wazoo is a true NM copy. I opened it, cleaned it, and test played it myself on 7/28/13. I am not keeping it ONLY because it is a Reprise label repressing.
So, what you are bidding on is a brand new, NM copy of the record, paired with the VG+ sleeve that came with the 1st pressing copy that I am keeping! (Since the sleeve of the sealed copy that I opened was EXACTLY the same as the first pressing, I kept that sleeve and paired it with the blue label copy that I kept for my collection.)
So, here you have the used sleeve (still VERY nice) and the brand new record.
If you are looking for perfect playability, but don't care about 1st pressing collectability... This is the deal of the decade for you! You will very much enjoy listening to this record!
