After 5
years of work and fun, THE FRANK ZAPPA SINGLE BOOK is finally at the printers!
The title is "Vinyl is not dead - it just smells funny". A book in
English language made from a collector for fans and collectors. On more than
500 full colored pages, every single, maxi, and EP with Frank Zappa
contribution is exposed, including more than 3000 photos, many background
information and a price guide. Furthermore you'll find pictures of the rarest
test pressings, acetates, cover and label variations, a price guide, and a lot
of other weird stuff.
The
book consists of a preface from Jeff Simmons (bassist/rhythm guitarist of the
Mothers of Invention from 1970 and 1974) and Napoleon Murphy Brock
(saxophone/flute/vocals of Frank Zappa between 1974 and 1984), the great full
colored cover design is done by Cal Schenkel (artwork designer of many Frank
Zappa records).
