ZAPPANALE 2017 - PART 03bis - MOON ZAPPA

Moon Zappa recently got interviewed at Zappanale. Through Skype.
Recordings and transcriptions turned up shortly after that.
Moon wasn't too happy with this, so they have been removed.

During the Zappanale skype interview Moon showed a painting / collage of her proposal for a cover for Frank Zappa's "Dance Me This" album.
It got rejected by Gail.
She posted this picture of it on Facebook, so I'm sure this can be shown :
