Pepper’s…*, —which is said to have influenced The Beatles’ *Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band*—features all 15 tracks across three discs, each containing one of three mixes produced in 1966. Disc One features the 1966 stereo mix based on 1\/4-inch analog tape; Disc Two features the pre-master mix, believed to be a reference mix created by an MGM Records engineer during the album’s production; and Disc Three features a rare mono mix of the album.\n\nDisc Four (CD): Features live recordings of the Mothers of Invention’s performances at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco on February 24, June 24, and June 25, 1966. These are rare tape recordings from the personal collection of recording engineer John Judnick, and this release represents the only official live recording of the Mothers—including guitarist Elliot Ingber—from the time of the *Freak Out!* release.\n\nDisc Five (CD): This disc features a generous 26 tracks of rare material that did not fit on Disc Four, including live recordings from the Fillmore Auditorium, rehearsal recordings by the Mothers, demos recorded in October 1965, and alternate mixes of album tracks with the vocals brought to the forefront.\n\nDisc Six (Blu-ray [Audio Only]): In addition to the Dolby Atmos mix and 5.1-channel surround mix of the main feature of *Freak Out!* (the latest mixes produced by Eric Goebel and Karma Ogier at Studio 1LA), the three different mixes included on Discs One through Three are also included in high-resolution quality. In addition to the 15 tracks from the main album, the bonus track “Groupie Bang Bang” is also included (Dolby Atmos and 5.1-channel surround only).\n\n- English-language booklet: An essay by Joe Travers, curator of the Zappa family’s tape archive, and explanations of the contents of each disc, liner notes by music journalist Jason Petigrew, a short memoir by photographer Ray Leon, and a collection of comments on *Freak Out!* from Zappa’s family, band members, journalists, and others.\n\n\u003cjapan edition only\u003e\n◆ Complete translation of the English liner notes, including lyrics and bilingual translations\n◆ SHM-CD format\u003c\/japan\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53419025531169,"sku":"4988031910665","price":13200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4988031910665.jpg?v=1788219793","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4988031910665","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
