Nothing to report!
I talked to Dave at G and S yesterday, and asked him whether or not he had any "sneak preview" info on upcoming Zappa releases. He didnt, he ( like
alot of us too, it seems ) has been trying to get hold of the ZFT for more stock for a while now. So, apart from The Dub Room Special coming out on
the 17th Oct, its the usual stuff we have already heard, i.e two releases before the end of the year, etc etc......Im thinking now that Trance Fusion
will be put back until the ZPZ tour, but you never know.....It was announced 10 years ago, along with Dance Me This, The Rage And The Fury, Lost
Episodes II etc etc, so I guess I / we are used to it!!!......One thing though, contact G and S for anything you may want, as he is cutting his
prices! CPIII is now only £30, but is in limited supply!!! END OF (crappy) NEWSFLASH

It does, but at the same time the whole mail order only adds to its charm in a wierd way. Funny how people paying up to £50 for it on e-Bay, and you
can get a brand new sealed copy from G and S for £30.....

It's a shame how expensive Zappa's lesser known works can be...

The irony being that this CPIII is Zappas greatest work, and should be heralded as so, IMO.

Along with 200 Motels and Everything Is Healing Nicely. I remember the amazing feeling I was imbued with upon buying
Civ. III post Zappa's Earthly departure. Around 1994/1995, I saw it everywhere. Now, I'm lucky if I can even find my copy amongst the corpses
littering my house, and the old coffee cups stuffed with moulds called Herbert and Duane.
Possibility is a private party to which you are no longer invited.

I know what you mean. I used to see it everywhere too, and, due to the nature of the original Zappa records versions packaging, every time you saw
copies, the more damaged and roughed up they became!

DOH!.....Thought for a minute there you were starting a forum rumour, as has happened on zappa.com many a time! All it takes is for someone to post
they are Gail or Dweezil, or whoever, and somebody goes for it......By the way, I am really Joe Travers.....Mail me for release requests.....
