NOTES:
- Albums marked with an asterisk have "This is album number x" or a number with a circle around it on the packaging and are therefore "verified", except for Civilisation: Phaze III, the packing for which indicates #60.
- "Old Masters Samplers" I and II were not released and not included here, however You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore sampler (tape) was included, as a copy was seen at Tower Records.
- Beat the Boots series is not included.
- Best of the Mothers, Worst of the Mothers, and !@#$ of the Mothers is not included. They were probably grouped with Mothermania. They do not seem to fit within the verified numbering scheme
- This list for the most part correlates with the ZAPPA! Guitar Player issue. It begins to deviate at number 47.
- Since St. Frank's untimely death a number of CDs have been released of the music he had in progress and other collections on which he had been working at the time of his death. These CDs are listed according to the date appearing on the packaging, since they don't appear to have album numbers.
- Catalogue numbers are listed for those CDs which are currently available in the Library of The Church of Tina Chopp.
- A number of albums appearing in the Library of The Church of Tina Chopp do not have catalogue numbers listed. These tapes were part of personal collections which were incorporated into the library at the request of the original collectors (who were primarily either Rev. Guido DeLuxe or Rev. Osiris Ranebo).
- Please contact The Church of Tina Chopp with corrections. Thanks.
