1968 US Orig W/Label 'PROMOTIONAL ONLY' LP ~ LUMPY GRAVY ~ FRANK ZAPPA on Verve Records V 8743
FRANK ZAPPA PRESENTS
LUMPY GRAVY
13/5/68 - FRANCIS VINCENT ZAPPA CONDUCTS - 'LUMPY GRAVY' ON VERVE RECORDS V/8741 / MG 1068 / THIRD STORY MUSIC / MGM RECORDS, A DIVISION OF METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER INC.- MADE IN THE U.S.A -
HERE I AM LISTING ONE OF THE RAREST VERSIONS OF FRANK ZAPPA'S DEBUT SOLO LP LUMPY GRAVY - WHICH HE WROTE AND RECORDED IN '11 DAYS' WITH A GROUP OF SESSIONS PLAYERS HE NAMED THE 'ABNUCEALS EMUUKHA ELECTRIC SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
AS I UNDERSTAND BOTH WHITE & YELLOW LABEL PROMOS EXIST - THE YELLOW PROMOS WERE SENT TO RADIO STATIONS & THE 'WHITE' LABELLED PROMOS WENT TO LOCAL RECORD STORES FOR PLAYING 'IN-HOUSE' - EVEN CUSTOM SLEEVES WERE PRODUCED (OF WHICH I'M SURE THE DIFFERENCES WILL BE KNOWN TO POTENTIAL BUYERS!) BUT WHAT MUST BE APPARENT HERE IS - "THE OWNER DID-NOT-LIKE-FRANK ZAPPA.." AS I DON'T BELIEVE THIS RECORD HAS EVER TOUCHED A RECORD DECK!!!
THE LABELS ARE IMMACULATE WITH NO TRACE OF A SPINDLE MARK. I HAVE HELD BOTH SIDES OF THIS RECORD UNDER A FLUORESCENT LIGHT AND THERE IS NOT EVEN THE FAINTEST TRACE OF IT EVER BEING PLAYED OR HANDLED INCORRECTLY. IT LIES IN IT'S ORIGINAL VERVE INNER SLEEVE IN *STUNNING MINT CONDITION!!!
THIS SLEEVE I WILL GRADE CONSERVATIVELY AS EX AS IT HAS FRONT BACK & EDGE STORAGE WEAR CONSISTANT WITH AN ALBUM OF THIS AGE WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, BUT THE HEAVY DUTY SLEEVE IS W/OUT CREASES AND SPINE IS EXCEPTIONAL. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE "TOP END" COPY AND VINYL COULD NOT BE BETTERED!!!
TO FIND SUCH A RARE PRESSING THAT WAS POSSIBLE PRESSED TO "100' OR SO COPIES - OVER '45 YEARS AGO' - WITH THE UNBANDED VINYL STILL IN PRISTINE CONDITION IS..
"A CONSUMATION DEVOUTLY TO BE WISHED..."
