The Album Itself Features One Of Zappa's Most Complex And Well-Known Tracks "Inca Roads". One Of Zappa's Heroes Johnny "Guitar" Watson Guests On Two Tracks.
Early U.S. LP Pressings Of One Size Fits All Are Particularly Notable For Two Reasons Many Early Copies Contain A Skip During "Inca Roads" At Approximately 4 40 Into The Track. This Error Was A Manufacturing Defect Not Caught During The Test Pressing Stage. The Album Was Recalled After The Mistake Was Caught But A Significant Number Had Already Been Sold. The Highly Complex Nature Of The Music Made It Difficult To Recognize The Error Without Comparing It To The Correct Version.
Some Copies Also Have The Catalog Number "BS 2879" Inscribed - And Crossed Out - In The Runoff Matrix Indicating That At One Point One Size Fits All Was Perhaps Mistakenly Planned To Be Released On Warner Bros. Records Whose Reprise Records Subsidiary Distributed Zappa's DiscReet Records Label. The Album Was Ultimately Released On DiscReet With A Catalog Number In Reprise's Sequence DS 2216. Warner Bros. Did Not Reassign The Number BS 2879 To Another Album.
In 1988 One Size Fits All Was Released On CD By Rykodisc.
