Cheaper Than Cheep - 180 Gram Black Vinyl - Sealed

FRANK ZAPPA Cheaper Than Cheep (Unseen, unheard, and unreleased for half a century - Cheaper Than Cheep is an extraordinary archival release showcasing Frank Zappa's 1974 Mothers in their most intimate and experimental setting. Originally conceived as a made-for-TV concert film, this private studio performance was staged in the band's rehearsal space and captured with full touring lights and gear. Technical limitations of the time meant the footage was shelved, untilnow. Painstakingly restored from original vault masters, this 2-hour performance finally surfaces as official Zappa release #130, revealing the tight interplay, daring arrangements, and unique humour of this classic Mothers lineup. This triple album 3-LP set features the full soundtrack on 180-gram black vinyl, housed in deluxe packaging with a booklet of rare photos and new liner notes from Ruth Underwood and Vaultmeister Joe Travers. Hype sticker & factory sealed. Recommended)
