Unbanded, continuous groove on both sides.
Released with an ''only money cut-outs'' insert.
Track B4 is listed as "Lonely Little Girl" on the label and as "It's His Voice on the Radio" on the inner gatefold.

In the textballoon on the back cover Frank Zappa Says : "Is This Phase One Of Lumpy Gravy?" making a reference to the album Lumpy Gravy. This gatefold album's artwork parodies the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper LP.

Sounds amazing 50 years after it was pressed. Crystal clear, everything is EQ'ed perfectly. If you can find this pressing, buy it.
