Description
FRANK ZAPPA - APOSTROPHE - 12" VINYL RECORD LP - MANUFACTURED AND DISTRIBUTED IN RUSSIA - FEATURES A DIFFERENT COVER AND DIFFERENT LABELS - N93-00699/700.
EDDIE ARE YOU KIDDIN'?, NO FOLKS, I'M NOT KIDDIN' AT ALL. THIS IS A RUSSIAN PRESSING OF THE FRANK ZAPPA CLASSIC ALBUM " APOSTROPHE ". IT EVEN HAS THE TITLE OF THE ALBUM AS WELL AS THE SONG TITLES PRINTED IN RUSSIAN WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS ON THE BACK COVER. THEN IT HAS THE NAMES OF THE BAND MEMBERS PRINTED IN ENGLISH BUT THE INSTRUMENTS THAT THEY PERFORM ON THIS ALBUM ARE PRINTED IN THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE ONLY, NO ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS. MY GUESS WOULD BE THAT THIS RECORD WAS PRESSED IN THE VERY EARLY 90'S, A FEW YEARS AFTER THE WALL CAME DOWN AND THEY CHANGED OVER FROM COMMUNISTS RUNNING THE COUNTRY TO GANGSTERS. BEFORE THE WALL CAME DOWN LISTENING TO OR EVEN OWNING A ZAPPA RECORDING IN RUSSIA WAS AGAINST THE LAW. IF THEY CAUGHT YOU LISTENING OR EVEN IN POSSESSION OF A ZAPPA LP THEY'D SHIP YOU OFF TO SIBERIA. IF THEY CAUGHT YOU MANUFACTURING A ZAPPA LP THEY'D CUT YOUR NUTS OFF, THEN THEY'D SHIP YOU TO SIBERIA. THINK I'M KIDDIN? ASK ANY RUSSIAN THAT YOU MEET WITH A HIGH VOICE AND A COLD LOOK ABOUT HIM, I BET HE KNOWS THE WORDS TO " DON'T EAT THE YELLOW SNOW ". ANYWAY, I'VE HAD THIS RECORD SINCE THE EARLY 90'S AND IT WAS OBTAINED FROM ONE OF MY TRADING PARTNERS OVERSEAS.
THE FRONT OF THE COVER LOOKS LIKE A MAGNIFIED IMAGE OF THE OVERNITE SENSATION ALBUM COVER WITH FRANK ZAPPA AND APOSTROPHE PRINTED IN LARGE LETTERS. I'VE ALREADY DESCRIBED WHAT'S PRINTED ON THE BACK. LIGHT RECORD INDENTATION MORE NOTICEABLE ON THE BACK BECAUSE IT'S BLACK.
THE RECORD HAS A FEW SMALL LIGHT SURFACE MARKS ON BOTH SIDES. A NICE VG+ IF I WERE GRADING IT AND NONE OF THE MARKS LOOK SERIOUS. THE RECORD BASICALLY LOOKS GREAT WITH A NICE GLOSS ON EACH SIDE. COMES WITH A COLLECTORS TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE AND A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.
PAYMENT BY PAYPAL OR MONEY ORDER IN US DOLLARS.
PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 10 DAYS OF AUCTION END. PERSONS WHO DO NOT PAY WILL BE SENT TO SIBERIA TO WORK IN THE BARRY MANILOW RECORD PRODUCTION MINES.
