I'm a proud owner of forty albums. Any other fans here? Let's talk Zappa.

Is he the same guy that managed to get an instrumental album tagged with the "explicit lyrics" sticker?

Faith No More's Angel Dust got slapped with that sticker for only having a single swear word on the entire disc; the line "I'm f.ucking you" during "Caffeine".

How are those '76 bootlegs? I don't care for 80s Zappa.

They are all good sound quality and good shows

1876. I was sittin in a breakfast room in allentown pennsylvania with a bowl of terribly foreshortened corn flakes and a 75 cent glass of orange juice the size of my finger. And I said, "Aint this the life".

Watch out where the Huskies go. And don't you eat that yellow snow.

hard to believe it's been about 35 years since i bought my first zappa album. Still have em.

Whoa, I gotta check out this thread more often. Sometimes I forget about the ancillary folders here.

I think I might head down to McHenry today and see if I can find something I don't have yet. Maybe one of the YCDs?

Oh, and I'd love to get that 70s bootleg, by the way. Maybe we can work out a trade of sorts? Here's what I own, asterisks denote favorites:

No Apostrophe? No Overnite Sensation? No Bongo Fury? No One Size Fits All? No Roxy? That was prime time Zappa to me (74-79).

Apostrophe is my favorite of those.

Apostrophe and ONS are good, but not favorites. 74-79 was a good period for Zappa, represented best by YCD2. Did I forget to * that? I love that one, sorry for neglecting.
