1979 - 60 SECOND LP COMMERCIAL: "LEVIS" RADIO SHOW LP WITH JEFF CRAIG - THIS IS AN LP THAT HAD BEEN SENT TO RADIO STATIONS ONLY - EACH SEGMENT REVIEWS A BAND'S NEWLY RELEASED 1979 ALBUM - BUT IT'S JUST ANOTHER CLEVER MADISON AVE GIMMICK TO PERSUADE FOOLISH YOUNG CONSUMERS TO BUY LEVIS JEANS - FIRST THE DJ TALKS ABOUT THE BAND'S NEW RELEASE, THEN THEY PLAY THE LEVIS AD, AFTER WHICH MUSIC FROM THE ALBUM IS PLAYED WHILE THE D.J. SPEWS FORTH HIS, OPINION ABOUT WHAT'S GOOD AND BAD ABOUT IT - WHAT I FIND INTERESTING IS THAT MANY ALBUMS  WERE SAID TO BE POOT OR WORSE BY THE D.J. - FOR EXAMPLE, THE SCHMUCK SAYS THAT FRANK ZAPPA'S SHEIK YERBOUTI IS ONE OF HIS BEST ALBUMS, WHILE SAYING THAT U.K.'S DANGER MONEY IS LESS THAN DELIGHTFUL - YOU DON'T HEAR TOO MUCH NEGATIVE ADVERTISING ENDORSED BY PRODUCTS, THESE DAYS - I WONDER IF ANYBODY WHO LOVED U.K.'S DANGER MONEY LP WOULD GO OUT AND BUY LEVIS JEANS AFTER BEING TOLD THAT THE ALBUM BASICALLY SUCKS? - I'VE ONLY SEEN THIS LP A COUPLE OF TIMES IN MY 40 YEARS OF FRANK ZAPPA AND RELATED RELENTLESS TRADING / COLLECTING - SENT ONLY TO RADIO STATIONS ONCE IN 1979, MOST WERE SIMPLY THROWN IN THE DUMPSTER BEHIND THE RADIO STATION AFTER BEING AIRED - 60 SECOND L.P. - 60-023-79 - CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS - SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE ACTUAL ITEM, WITH NO PHOTOS OF ANY VOLUPTUOUS VIXEN'S GRAVITY DEFYING UPLIFTED PERKY MAMMALIAN PROTUBERANCES ADDED IN SOME BLATANT ATTEMPT BY ME TO MAKE THE ITEM APPEAR EVEN MORE INTERESTING THAN IT ALREADY IS - SO IT'S 100% SAFE FOR YEZ TO CHECK EM' OUT WITHOUT THE RISK OF GETTING HAIRY PALMS OR SOMETHING - OK LARRY?

I PLAYED BOTH SIDES OF THIS LP PRIOR TO LISTING. BOTH SIDES PLAYED PROBABLY THE SAME AS THEY DID WHEN THE RADIO STATIONS PLAYED THEM 35 YEARS AGO. ONE GOOD POINT IS THAT BOTH SIDES PLAY ALL SEGMENTS, WITHOUT HAVING TO GET UP TO ADVANCE THE NEEDLE TO THE NEXT SEGMENT, AS IS THE CASE WITH MANY OF THESE TYPES OF RADIO PROMOS. HARDER ON THE D.J., BUT EASIER IF YOU JUST WANT TO DROP THE NEEDLE AND LISTEN TO THE SIDE ALL THE WAY THRU. WHEN I MOVED BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD AROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB, SOME LIGHT SCUFFS, NOTHING MAJOR OR WORTH TALKING ABOUT.  THAT TRANSLATED INTO THE WAY IT PLAYED. THE PRESSING IT'S SELF IS ON A HEAVIER VINYL THAN YOU'D EXPECT AN LP THAT WAS INTENDED TO BE PLAYED ONLY ONCE WOULD HAVE BEEN PRESSED ON. THE ALBUM COMES WITH A GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET AND A BRAND NEW HIGH QUALITY TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE....., BECAUSE DUE TO THE FACT THAT WEEZE TIGHT, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE.
