Hard-core Frank Zappa fans will have to wait a little longer for revamped versions of two of the late composer’s seminal works from the ’60s.
An ambitious box set combining rare studio tracks and new mixes of both Lumpy Gravy and We’re Only In It for the Money, dubbed Lumpy Money, will not meet its slated Nov. 25 release date.
The project is set to include two separate versions of each album to celebrate the records’ fortieth anniversary. An alternate mix of Lumpy Gravy will feature Zappa’s original, “ballet” vision of the orchestral project.
News of the delay did not hit Zappa.com until yesterday, and the Zappa Family Trust provided no clues as to why the project stalled. Nor did they provide an updated time frame for release:
“We will notify you here as soon as we have a real date. Which should be soooooon!”
