FRANK ZAPPA
200 MOTELS 2LP
AUSTRALIA
UNITED ARTISTS L 70005/6
This is the 1975 reissue with a different catalog number and new amended cat# sticker on the back cover.
Clean first pressings are always hard to find but the 1975 pressing has hardly ever turned up.
Excellent matte sleeve has minimal ring/cover wear with a few small creases.
Vinyl is mint unplayed.
The track 'Penis Dimension' has been omitted, while 3 other tracks have been edited.
Same censorship as with the 1971 release.
This is unique to the Australian pressings, such is censorship in the early 70's in Australia.
No booklet nor poster was with either release.
Notes from 'zappainaustralia.com'
The Australian pressing of Frank’s opus Soundtrack was released in here in 1972 in a matte gatefold sleeve, as with the U.S.A pressing. The only album on this label and Licensed to be distributed by Festival in Australia.
This was the only country that edited this album and with a ridiculous amount of censorship.
The complete track ‘Penis Dimension’ was removed along with three other tracks having
lines edited.
Side 1 track 9 Lonesome Cowboy Burt From the verse ‘Come out here to Californy Just to find me Some pretty girls Ones I seen Gets me so horny Ruby lips N’ teeth like pearls’. The two lines ‘Ones I seen Gets me so horny’ were removed.
Side 2 track 3 Redneck Eats From the verse ‘What the fuck was that? I wonder if that sonabitch can play something I might like..’ The line ‘What the fuck was that?’ was removed.
Side 2 track 9 Shove It Right In From the last two verses the line ‘Waiting girls they can shove it right in’ was removed.
As well as censorship the matte double gatefold album set didn’t contain a booklet or poster as with some other countries.
Reissued in the mid 70’s in the original sleeve with the same censorship but with a different catalogue number and slight label variation. An amended catalogue number sticker is placed over the printed number on the rear of the sleeve. Both pressings have side 1 & 4/record one and side 2 & 3/record two.
The 1972 cassette received the same censorship as the vinyl.
