There are a LOT of rip off copies of this poster on Ebay.

yeah the old rasterbater is pretty cool... This is one of my ORIGINAL Zappa posters... http://www.whocollection.com/ZappaOA304.JPG How about that Rasterbated?

I have. Though I have several DVDs, Does Humour Belong In Music, Dub Room Special (GET IT NOW!!!), Baby Snakes, 200 Motels, plus many bootlegs and various documentaries. I told you I was a Zappa nut right? I have 2 original 1967 posters (VERY RARE) plus a HUGE promo poster done for...

garyi, I think I have everything :-) Seriously... About 20 on LP and 20 on CD and the rest on MP3. In fact in terms of closest in sound is Weasels Ripped My Flesh as it's constructed in a similar fashion from live/studio performances of the same band. Having been a Zappa nut since...

It's long been one of my favourite albums. Started listening to it last night for the first time on my new Naim setup (cdx, 82, hicap, 250, headline, epos m22s, squeezebox) on crappo mp3 thru the squeezebox (problems with my rega at the moment) and was stunned how good it was. Then listened...

The Hendrix doc on BBC4 was loads better. His version of Jonny B Goode was awesome.

SRV was one of the very best guitarists ever! In fact Rolling Stone mag list him in as number #7 the top #100 guitarists of all time to give you some idea of how highly regarded he is (even to this day). He is certainly in my top 2 (Frank Zappa being number one). And I agree with the above...

Has anyone suggested this to Naim? Is there a reply?

Has anyone got this CD? Edgar Meyer Unfolding I would DEARLY love to get a copy of it - it would seem IMPOSSIBLE to get. :-(

That's the trouble with good hifi, the recording sounds 'worse' (or should I say more revealing)!

Firstly I HAVE to say I cannot start to express my profound despair that the beautiful Stevie Ray is no longer with us : Rave On Stevie... Been listening again to Texas Flood tonite... Is it me (or my hifi) or is the record quality on this album pretty poor. I'm referrign to the high...

Woah! Awesome!

If you get "Begin To Hope" try and get the version with the extra 5 songs which are also great. I saw here in Brighton, England recently and althought she had terrible flu performed brialliantly. I love her music....

You guys are crazy!
