VARIOUS ARTISTS - ELECTRIC LADYLAND III

  • Various Artists: Electric Ladyland III
        (1996, cd, Germany, mille plateaux)

Si (Simon) Begg sampled Frank Zappa’s ‘Don’t You Ever Wash That Thing?’ in ‘Nothing Is A True Zen Say’ and in ‘Nothing Is What I Want’, both released on his “Nothing Is A True Zen Say” 12” EP in 1996.
The titles of both pieces also refer to the lyrics of FZ's 'Dummy Up'.

The ’Nothing Is What I Want’ piece would also get released on the “Electric Ladyland III” compilation album, later in 1996. 

A remastered version of both tracks got released in 2016 on Si Begg’s “Position Chrome EP 1996” Bandcamp release.

The sampling starts at around 37 seconds into both tracks.
