ITEM DESCRIPTION: Pressing Features: Official Release #1 Early US sleeves had a small "Hot-Spots Freak Map" promo on the inside spread. There is a typographical error in the text of this for the venue 'Bido Lido's', which is printed 'Bido Lito's'. Sleeves were reprinted (post-1967) without this ad, upon expiry of map availability. (As the map was mail-order and not included, its inclusion with a valid release does not make that particular copy unique - although the rarity of the original map does greatly enhance its value and sellers need to be mindful of commenting on whether it is included. Caution; reproductions of the map are also in circulation.) Vinyl cat#s have 2 IDs; V for mono & V6 for stereo. Vinyl US sleeves came with 3 cat#s; V-5005-2, V6-5005-2 & V6-5005-2X Vinyl US sleeve inner spreads also came with 2 generic mono/stereo imprints; V/V6-500502 & V/V6-5005-2, which may contain either mono or stereo issues. Early US labels, pressed by MGM Records Division (MGM/Verve plant, Bloomfield) have V6-5005-2 & the 3rd Story Music credit in 2 lines crediting Zappa. Contracted-out pressings & later US labels have V6/5005-2 & the 3rd Story Music credit in 3 lines, with crediting as (F. Zappa) or (Frank Zappa). For both mono & stereo, the slash '/ ' on label cat#s is common to later issues, which include the addition of the Sunset Boulevard address in the radial text following PolyGram acquisition in 1972. THIS COPY: Verve blue labels with silver text...no company address on labels. Cat# V6-5005-2 on front/back cover/inside gatefold/spine and labels. "Freak-Out Hot-Spots" map/poster offer printed inside gatefold right-hand side. A4 appears on the label as "Go Cry On Somebody's Else's Shoulder". C1 appears on the label as "Trouble Comin' Every Day". Side D title uses "Tableaus" spelling on label and "Tableaux" spelling on sleeve.
