No, here in the UK there's a lovely chap called Dave at a place called G&S Music (www.gandsmusic.com) who specialise in Zappa and I just drop him an e-mail and say 'when it turns up send me one' and then I don't have to think about anything ever again - and I support a fellow one Englishman small business type thing at the same time...

RE: [Zappa-List] Re: 40th anniversary of Zappa's albums
I read the same interview as Bri, where Gail says: "These two records happen to be Frank's masterworks," Zappa tells Billboard.com, "so this is the most ambitious of all the (40th anniversary) projects. The challenge is how to educate the audience to understand what 'Lumpy Gravy' and 'We're Only in It for the Money' are, and what they're part of. "So in this particular case we have to be more about the process than the outtakes. You're going to be listening to how Frank worked, all the little developments of these pieces as opposed to just an outtake or another performance of that particular piece. You're going to hear how he got there from here." which did suggest it wasn't going to be outtakes and such - it sounds like maybe it's incomplete outtakes - examples or something... We'll just have to wait and hear what it's *actually* all about - whatever it turns out to include (besides the obvious) I've got my copy reserved already.

He appeared in the Overnite/Apostrophe "Classic Albums" DVD and did some liner notes for the MOFO set, as well. Wonder when it was exactly that he got in touch with ZFT or vice versa and started getting involved in these projects. I've read his writing and stuff here and there for some years and never really knew he was much interested in Zappa before seeing him on that DVD. --Milhouse **AOL Search: Your one stop for directions, recipes and all other Holiday needs.

Apparently there's no - or not much - extra material left from the Absolutely Free sessions.
