* Tracks 1-5 claim to have been recorded in the UMRK truck; 1 & 3 in "1980" (probably february; they are rehearsal recordings), 2 at 6-Apr-1982, and 4-5 at 20-Apr-1982 (the Crush All Boxes disc in the Mystery Box has some similar, probably identical tracks)

* Track 7 live in Detroit 25-Nov-1981

"Produced by Rob & Nobney for Cornhole Productions" - very charming. The UMRK truck band is listed as Ike Willis, Ray White, Arthur Barrow and "The Drumkit" in 1980, and as Tommy Mars, Scott Thunes, Ray White, Bobby Martin, Ed Mann, Steve Vai and Chad Wackerman in 1982. (According to this, track 5 is not a Zappa solo.) The tracks are bridged by snippets from a radio special on Varèse in 1981.
