It's time to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the biggest and most popular record in Frank Zappa's vast catalog." Zappa, who had been in the industry for a decade by then, developed his own unique music on Apostrophe('). Frank Zappa was making music that was different from anyone else's. And this album - especially the song "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" - introduced the world to that unique and wonderful sound in a way that no one, including Frank, had expected. It was a great way to introduce a unique and wonderful sound to the world in a way that no one, including Frank, had expected." - Joe Travers, Zappa family tape warehouse keeper
Blu-ray Audio (sound only): "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" became the first Zappa song to chart on the singles chart, and the title track "Apostrophe (')" featured Jack Bruce (ex-Cream, bass) and Jim Gordon (ex-Derek and the Dominos, drums). Apostrophe (')," Zappa's biggest hit, was also a hot topic of conversation. All the songs are now available in Dolby Atmos and 5.1 surround sound (the latest mix produced by Eric Gobel and Carma Auger at Studio 1LA), 4-channel stereo mix produced by Zappa himself (first official release in 50 years, since 1974!) ), and a 4-channel stereo mix produced by Zappa himself (the first official release since 1974!), in 192kHz/24-bit and 96kHz/24-bit high-res stereo (the latest master by Bernie Grundman) formats.

CD1: The latest master of the full-length album produced by Bernie Grundman (Bernie Grundman Mastering), as well as alternate takes and mixes of the recorded tracks (including 7 tracks from 2016's "The Cracks of the Biscuit") and the album version. The album also includes a number of related recordings, including an unedited master of the title track, which also features a six-minute performance that is not included on the album version.
CDs 2 & 3: Includes a performance from March 21, 1974 in Colorado Springs, Colorado (the exact venue is unknown, but the most popular theory is that it was at the Civic Auditorium). This was one of the shows of a five-week tour as a prelude to the 10th anniversary tour of the Mothers of Invention led by Zappa, and the audience can hear new arrangements of famous songs, new songs at the time, and a rare performance of "Babette," which was rarely performed. The performance by the lineup including Jeff Simmons (guitar/vocals), who had also joined the Mothers in 1970, has never been included in any of Zappa's official releases.
CD4 & 5: Recorded on November 20, 1974 at the Harrah's Arena in Dayton, Ohio. The band consisted of Zappa (guitar/vocals), George Duke (keyboards/vocals), Napoleon Murphy Block (tenor sax/flute/vocals), Tom Fowler (bass), Chester Thompson (drums), Ruth Underwood (percussion). The Dayton show is the last live recording of this lineup in existence. The Dayton show is the last surviving live recording of this lineup. CD4 begins with a recording of the popular song "Inca Rose" from the March 1974 Salt Lake City show.

English booklet: Detailed liner notes by Joe Travers, the Zappa family's tape warehouse keeper, and British journalist Simon Prentice, as well as treasured photos taken by Sam Emerson, who created the iconic jacket photo for "Apostrophe(')".

<Includes complete translation of the English liner notes, lyrics, and bilingual translation.
