Funky Nothingness is available now in a variety of formats, including a three-disc expanded deluxe edition that presents the 11-track album on disc 1 along with two discs of outtakes, alternate edits, unedited masters of songs from the era, plus several epic improvisations, and other “bonus nothingness.” An accompanying 28-page booklet includes photos from the recording sessions by photographer John Williams plus illuminating liner notes and an individual track-by-track by Travers.
In all, the 25-track collection includes 23 unreleased tracks totalling nearly three and a half hours of never-before-heard music. The expanded edition of Funky Nothingness is available digitally for streaming and download, in both standard and hi-res audio (96kHz/24-bit).
The Funky Nothingness album is also available as a double LP on both 180-gram black vinyl and limited edition clear violet 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Optimal, with lacquers cut by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. The vinyl will consist of Zappa’s vintage mixes of the tracks. The limited edition color pressing, which includes a collectible guitar pick, is available exclusively at Zappa.com, uDiscover Music and Sound of Vinyl.
