Notes
Official Release #22
The track "The Torture Never Stops" is the Zappa vocal, studio version. (Not the Vliet vocal - sometimes credited in parenthesis as [Original Version]).
The front cover features (L to R) Patrick O'Hearn, Terry Bozzio, Frank Zappa & Eddie Jobson although both O'Hearn and Jobson did not play on the album.
The Japanese hanko (seal or stamp) on the front cover, 葉雑, can be read as "Za-pa"; the characters used translate as "Miscellaneous Leaves". The back cover features 不乱苦雑派, which can be read phonetically as "Fu-ran-ku-zap-pa"; the translation of these characters is non-sensical, rendering "Not" "Turbulent" "Distress" "Miscellaneous" "Faction", which could be interpreted as "An easy-going band/group."

Edited 2 months agoI was wondering if all these new pressings by B. Grundman were real AAA full analogue pressings ?
In any case, this one is fantastic ❤ -
I have variant 3, but on side A the 2970 is written as 2927 with the 27 etched over with 70.

Anyone know more about this variant? I just got this copy and looking to see if anyone have any more info. -

My opinion is that this is the last great Zappa record. -

Black napkins sounds amazing and is really dynamic man. Overall this pressing sounds glorious and is beautiful. So happy I found this at a local record store in Louisville, KY in the Highlands 😎. -
Edited 2 months agoExcellent pressing. Clear deep and dynamic.
All the instrument breathing and bring a beautiful relief.
Rega P3 + 2M Bronze.

The same version exists with no sheet and titles written in the center.
-
Why is Eddie Jobson on the cover but isn’t listed on any of the tracks? -

Good God! get this pressing!!!! This is SICK ive played my copy 100 plus times- it still sounds incredible -
This is a great pressing.. I might've heard like one slight pop on the A side but that's about it. Great Album.. Black Napkins with the gritty gitar solos and Zoot Allures is such a trip. Amazing production throughout and good attention to detail by the mastering engineers.
