Love is only for giving, and something that cannot be taken! Welcome (or welcome back) to Vinyl Monday! This is my weekly series where I give the who/what/when/where/why and how I feel about classic albums in my collection. But sometimes, it’s an album like THIS. My thoughts on one of the most bizarre nuggets to be released by Frank Zappa’s Bizarre Records: the one and only GTOs album, Permanent Damage (released 1969) Subscribe for more Vinyl Monday and vintage fashion!
