Notes
Early stereo pressing variant. First version, containing several edited bits, not heard on later versions.Navy blue labels with silver print and 1.5" diameter press ring.
The typesetting layout used on the labels is slightly different from the other similar versions: "The Mothers Of Invention" appears on one line. Track numbering for B8 is a bit to the left of numbers B1 through B7 which are all in a straight vertical line.
There are no separation bands in between tracks, so both sides look like they only have one very long track.
Initially came with an ''only money cut-outs'' insert. Some copies have a "Mothers" yellow sticker on top front middle of cover.
Track B1, Nasal Retentive Caliope Music, is mis-spelled on label, but spelled correctly as 'Calliope' on cover.
Track B4 is listed as "Lonely Little Girl" on the label and as "It's His Voice on the Radio" on the inner gatefold.
Catalog no. V6 5045X on rear cover and spine; catalog no. V6 5045 on labels.
In the text balloon on the cover Frank Zappa Says "Is This Phase One Of Lumpy Gravy?", making a reference to the album Lumpy Gravy.
The gatefold sleeve design is a blatant parody of the album The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, except that the collage that usually appears on the front cover, appears in the center of the gatefold instead, and vice versa.
BAOI note: The sideways stamped block shaped "S" in the 8 o'clock position of the runouts denotes a pressing by MGM Record Manufacturing Division.

Please note: All of the items that I sell are from my own personal collection.
This is a large collection (that I have maintained and added to for well over 40 years),
that I am now divesting, due to mounting medical bills.
I, am not a store, or a business.
I am a private collector, selling off large parts of my personal collection.
Please Note: Despite a major surgery that I had a while ago, I am still dealing
with a lot of extreme complications and chronic disability.
As a result, this sometimes gets in the way of my e-baying.
So, if my turn around time takes a lot longer then most sellers,
(I have a 30 day shipping window) I really do apologize in advance.
I know it is a (potentially) long delivery window,
and you may want to consider this before bidding.
Also, I always ship items in proper shipping packaging, with padding
or packing peanuts or cardboard bracing as needed. I use whatever is
required in order to try and get it safely through the worldwide mail
systems. As a result, there is a small (cost) fee for the packaging materials
that I get from Box City, in order to safely ship the items.
Also, please understand this in advance, I use the e-bay calculator to
figure out postage. Sometimes, it is wrong, and presents a cost that is
higher then the actual cost at the post office. If and when this is the case,
I always refund the difference.
Please Note: Overseas Packages that go through the Customs system,
can take up to 4 to 6 weeks to Process and Deliver, This IS Normal.
For Russia and the Middle East, this can take even longer and is
completely out of my control, so please be patient.
Many Thanks.
