Which at first glance looks pretty good - I have a copy of the original around some where, but this would not be the day to start that hunt... :-)

But like I said this looks like it's right or at least very close. Have fun...

Well Terry certainly played it that way (so most transcriptions would probably include it) - though I don't really remember it being on FZ's original notation.

And if the rest is accurate, then for anyone taking a shot at learning this, I would think the 1/4 note hat could be added regardless of it being on the page or not.

Try Zappa.com

I got mine there something like 15 years ago. It's not in the current inventory, but there is contact info at the bottom of the page.
