FRANK ZAPPA
"IN NEW YORK" DOUBLE LP
MEGA RARE WITH PUNKY'S WHIPS
(THIS GENUINE 1st UK PRESSING WAS WITHDRAWN WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF RELEASE)
1977 1st UK PRESSING
ON THE DISCREET LABEL
K69204
Zappa collectors will know all about this rarity. 'Punky' Meadows took out an injunction against Zappa to prevent him using his name & photograph on this LP. The track and all photos/references to 'Punky's Whips' had to be removed. However, a few copies were released in the UK (but in no other country) before the injunction came into force.
This is the mega rare 1st UK pressing with (a) the photograph of Terry Bozio holding a photo of Punky & with the text & lyrics inside the gatefold (b) the title listed on the rear cover Side 1 track listings - later pressings had this removed and substituted with Big Leg Emma and (c) listed on the label (d) the record plays the track.
This is the original version fully as Frank Zappa intended it to be released before the lawyers forced changes to the content.
