Those that like to ponder the title of the forthcoming
4Tieth Anniversary Project/Object Audio Documentary
Cruising With Ruben & The Jets.

As stated I cast my VOTE for
RUBEN'S SHOES
and yet but also
RUBEN'S HAIR POMADE

Then again there may be plenty of CLUES
on the Original Album, Old Masters,
The Story of Ruben & The Jets,
FZ Vocal version of Valerie
and but also quite possibly visually including,
yes the packaging,
some permutation of Cal Schenkel's 1968 Zappa Log Cabin adventures.

a simple "RUBEN" would suffice

They could do a MO package of of Ruben and the Jets and Burnt Weeny Sandwich and have a Ruben Sandwich.

Yes. I've heard the news. Just having fun and I really can't afford new shoes right now. Good thing it's only a single disc I might be able to spring for that.

Hence my guess at RUBEN'S SHOES
and but also the hair treatment
RUBEN'S HAIR POMADE

ABSOLUTELY FREE MONEY (additional LM material & any AF stuff)

WEASELS SANDWICH, WEASELS REVENGE, CHUNGA'S SANDWICH,WAKA WAZOO

THE FILMORE EAST MOTEL...maybe not.....2000 MOTELS OR.... STRICTLY GENTEEL!! (that would be too fitting and for insiders only.. )

Ruben is beautiful. After another time through LM im gonna play the vinyl Ruben - then back to select tracks from LM. I'm dwelling on this stuff right now thanks to this release. also cant stop playing "no matter what you do" and some other classics...

may i ask where you heard the news of this being released in about 2 months....and that is a single disc? That would be great!

ah never mind. i found it. would be cool if they had in the sky on it. roy is amazing.

I concur, Roy is one talented Falsetto Pachuco.
I had the pleasure of singing arm in arm with him several years back.
Sort of a bar stool harmonic duo of Uncle Meat Variations done purely for our amusement purposes.
I don't know maybe Donna Ya Wanna heard a bar or two.

Last I heard Roy had some unfortunate troubles I rather would not expand upon.
In The Sky would be a welcomed treat.
I've seen that BBC performance from 1968 one on Youtube
and hopefully that will one day get an Official Release
where the Audio is restored.

Oh In The Sky on Color Me Pop 1968 is a masterpiece.
Just how Frank introduces that piece
with his commentary on the BBC letting them do things their
that US TV would never let happen in the United States,
directly followed by the conducting ques,
FZ wearing that blue bandanna, It's priceless.
Roy sending out a Pachuco tribute.....................

Cheap Thrill (since it's a single disc, let's hope for a relatively low price!)

If it's one disc, can they fit both the original mix and the 80's mix on one disc, not to mention any extras? Somethings gotta give. If we're lucky they'll let the 80's version reside with Ryko.

they cant release the ryko master - im expecting the viny version or some other mix we dont know about - or maybe it will be all outakes etc ??

you know i ran in to Mr. Estrada several times last year. he ate at the restaurant i worked at. At least a year ago he seemed great. Signed my Freak Out! Was excited about the grande-mothers. We even exchanged e-mails once in awhile. Then he just kind of disappeared. Great guy. Hope all is well with him. Can't wait for this release.

what's the scoop with Roy?

Trendmonger felt he should bring it up, then go all "mysterious" about it...HE should be the one to explain it, or else STFU about it.
