Weasels Ripped My Flesh - Original 1970 German Reprise label 6-track Stereo LP - Alternate Artwork

Scarce original 1970 German Reprise Records 6-track stereo vinyl LP - the second album that Zappa released after disbanding the Mothers Of Invention in 1969 - featuring an almost equal mix live recordings and studio material and full of cross-references to avant-garde/free jazz and modern classical music.

Vinyl has the generic tan steamship labels with boxed orange ':r' logo above company name - housed in outer laminated picture cover featuring Dieter Boé alternate artwork displaying a metal doll bleeding away in a rat trap.

Condition: VG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyl is bright and lustrous - has barely any sleeve wear - just a touch of fine, light and inaudible sleeve lines - straight very close to perfect, VG++. Labels are in perfect condition with no spindlemarks.
Cover has barely any wear, shiny and with a very few light wrinkles - conservatively graded near perfect as well.
