The next F Zappa vault release will be titled One Shot Deal. It was/is available right now with a $300 donation to the PBS station in San Diego. It will then be sold at all up coming Zappa Plays Zappa concerts and then finally to the general public via Zappa.com.

The $300 deal also gets you the 5 disc set ZPZ (2 DVD/3 CDs) and FZ's final guitar collection Transfusion. Since any FZ fan worth his salt already has those two you must ask yourself "Is it worth it? Do you feel lucky?"

Even I could justify the $300 price tag without knowing what it is.

This is the only information which has trickled out -
From DZ: “...One Shot Deal, the Exciting and New (and Official #83) Frank Zappa release will become available on the ZPZ Tour de Frank and eventually online at Barfko-Swill.” Dweezil has revealed that it includes one of the first versions of Yellow Snow, FZ guitar solos and some orchestral stuff. "It's really good," he says, noting that FZ has a lot of fun on it, laughing quite bit. Just a shame that this new official FZ release is first being ‘given away’ as part of a $300 TV pledge package with the ZPZ deluxe DVD set and Trance-Fusion, which most of us already own

Does any one here have any more info...or perhap's has any one here anted up the $300 pledge?

Sounds almost as bad as the exclusive 5-song EP that St. Springsteen offered to PBS viewers pledging something like $90.

(But Bruce! That's $90 I could have used to buy canned food for unemployed factory workers!)

I would go for it if I had $300. Right now I am trying to justify $170 for Tom Waits tickets. I need to make up my mind - they go on sale in the morning.
