Additional Information

Comments We're Only In It For The Money:
"This whole monstrosity was conceived & executed by Frank Zappa as a result of some unpleasant premonitions, August through October 1967. All premonitions continuing to come true."

New bass and drums has been overdubbed (played by Arthur Barrow and Chad Wackerman, respectively) without any acknowledgment of this in the CD booklet.

Lumpy Gravy:
Recorded in February 1967. Remixed 1984.

"All the music heard on this album was composed, arranged & scientifically mutilated by Frank Zappa (with the exception of a little bit of surf music). None of the sounds are generated electronically... they are all the product of electronically altering the sounds of NORMAL instruments."

1984 Remix
