THIS IS A PRE-ORDER FORTHE THIRD MAN RECORDS VAULT #36 PACKAGE……RELEASE DATE IS NOT EXACT, BUT ITSHOULD SHIP IN JUNE OR JULY
Out of print on vinyl for nearly tenyears, this remaster was helmed by industry legend Bob Ludwig and cut by theestimable Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman mastering. Utilizing crystalline-qualitysafety masters kept in the Zappa family vault for decades by thetrustworthy Joe Travers, the audio here is positively glorious. Every lastskronk breathes full life into the room. Every twisted guitar figure uncurlsonto paths previously unpaved. Every last bark and howl shines resolute throughthe vast emptiness of your mind.
Previous countless “Trout MaskReplica” repressings used scans of scans of scans of the cover image, but forVault Package #36 the original Cal Schenkelcover photo has beentracked down and reproduced here at its clearest — its resolution from theoriginal release in 1969. If you’ve only ever seen a jpg online or fuzzy,smeared-looking CD issues from the 90’s, be prepared to be wowed by the fullyengaging spectrum this iconic image casts. This 2xLP is pressed on heavyweight180-gram fruitcake fish-scale colored vinyl for that full-on frenetic feeling.
The French-only 7-inch single of“Pachuco Cadaver” b/w “Wild Life” will also be included as part of thisoverreaching package. As the only single ever pulled from this admittedly densealbum, this is the first time EVER that “Pachuco Cadaver” has been repressedand comes wonderfully housed in a replica glue-pocket picture sleeve andpressed on a white colored vinyl.
Additionally, Third Man Records hasundertaken the creation of the first ever replica trout mask. Much in thespirit of the cardboard cutouts included in original copies of theBeatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s album, this mask will be a hit at Halloweenparties and Duchampian celebrations for eons to come. If that’s not enough,Third Man has commissioned an impressive, striking fabric patch that reproducesthe Trout Mask cover art, an insignia that will signify any wearer as afollower in the Captain’s army.
And if that’s not enough, the reveredillustrator Jess Rotter of Rotter and Friends has runthe Trout Mask cover through her inimitable style and cooked up aninspired line-drawing rendering that beautifully graces a sturdy,durable tote bag to hold all these wonderful sundries in.
Finally, as a testament to theinspiring life of Don Van Vliet, Third Man has lovingly printed Jack White’sepitaph for the man in glorious, iridescent metallic silkscreen broadsidewonderment. Fitting in the LP jacket and fitting as a tribute, this evocativepoem was originally published in March 2011 issue of MOJO Magazine.
