    original first printing
    concert poster
    advertising
    Frank Zappa
    at the Palacio de los Deportes in Barcelona [Spain] on Wednesday, 19th September, 1984, in support of the
    Them or Us
    album, produced by Zappa himself and released on 18th October, 1984 on his own Barking Pumpkin label. Following problems with the album
    Thing-Fish
    , which MCA Records refused to distribute, Zappa made a deal with EMI Records, which would allow
    Them Or Us
    and
    Thing-Fish
    to be distributed by Capitol Records in the United States. Zappa wrote a “warning” which appeared on the inner sleeves of these albums, as well as
    Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention
    , which stated that the albums contained content “which a truly free society would neither fear nor suppress”, and a “guarantee” which stated that the lyrics would not “cause eternal torment in the place where the guy with the horns and pointed stick conducts his business.” As with other Zappa rock albums of this era, many of the tracks are sourced from live recordings. Later studio overdubs were liberally applied, although there is no mention of this on the album notes.
    The poster measures 33.4 x 48.2 cm (approx. 13.1" x 19" inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, uncoated paper stock. In excellent unfolded and unmarked condition, ready to frame.
