Notes
Warners refused to issue the album in its original form because they considered the homoerotic references to Angel guitarist Punky Meadows in "Titties And Beer" and especially "Punky's Whips" to be libelous.
Warners eventually put out [...] Zappa In New York, with "Titties And Beer" censored and "Punky's Whips" deleted entirely, leaving the album conspicuously short on playing time. Although Warner Brothers had been sitting on this album for a year, when they finally released it they may have done so hastily, as some copies escaped that included "Punky's Whips".
