RECORD IS VG+ AND COVER IS VG+. YOU WILL NEVER SEE THIS IS SUCH GOOD SHAPE OR EVEN FIND ONE AT ALL NO MATTER WHAT SHAPE ITS IN! THIS RECORD IS A "NEVER FIND AGAIN" PIECE. THE STAMP OF QUALITY WITH A PIG ON IT IS ON THE COVER AND BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD. THERE ISNT MUCH MORE I CAN SAY BECAUSE THIS INFORMATION BELOW IS ALL THAT COULD BE FOUND ABOUT THIS GREEN VINYL COPY. 200 Motels Live Length: ~45 min Label: Trademark of Quality Records TMOQ 71010 (LP) Musicians: Frank Zappa, Ray Collins ("only briefly audible"), Jeff Simmons, Aynsley Dunbar, Billy Mundi, Ian Underwood, Don Preston, Motorhead Sherwood and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Zubin Mehta There is no track list. The record has no track separation and both sides contain more or less non-stop music. Since there's no track list, what was actually played? According to Jon Naurin, "they played a long, orchestral suite called '200 Motels'", and according to Michael Gula, "that composition was really a hodge-podge, containing parts of what is now 'Bogus Pomp' along with themes of a number of Zappa tunes that were weeded out". Themes can be recognised from "Envelopes", "Holiday in Berlin", "A Pound for a Brown on the Bus", "The Duke of Prunes", "Who Needs the Peace Corps", "The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbeque", "Oh No" and 200 Motels. Jon Naurin provides this break down of the "200 Motels" suite: Pound for a Brown Oh No Envelopes Little House I Used to Live in Tuna Sandwich Redneck Eats World's Greatest Sinner Holiday in Berlin Inca Roads Strictly Genteel Duke of Prunes Who Needs the Peace Corps? Pound for a Brown Oh No The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue The vinyl original of this was the first Zappa bootleg record ever released, and despite the record number, the first Trademark of Quality release. Some report that early TMOQ runs were on red vinyl, later runs on black and in various covers. the very first edition (black vinyl) had hand-drawn covers! However, there are confirmed reports of a green vinyl pressing of TMOQ 71010, housed in a green, hand-stamped cardboard sleeve. AND HERE IT IS! GOOD LUCK! ________________________________________________________________________
