How is it all categorized?
The singles are divided into categories, subcategories and then listed chronologically. Frank Zappa/Mothers singles and maxi singles are categorized under US label periods. For instance, all singles released during the Zappa Records era will be listed under Zappa Records even though they were released on CBS in Europe.
You can use the advanced filter to view Frank Zappa and Mothers of Invention singles using tags such as country, artist, label and format. I have not included tags for singles and maxi-singles under “Featuring Frank Zappa” and “Various Artists”. This was to avoid an overwhelming amount of tag options.
A lot of useful information can be found in the tabs you’ll see just below the pictures of a single. Things like title strips, alternate labels, promo stickers and other information can be found there.
Re-releases are listed under the original release. So, if you want to see the 2012 version of “Big Leg Emma/Why Don’t You Do Me Right”, you have to go to the original 1967 release page. Use the search function if there is a title you can’t find.
