La raccolta, prevista per il 25 settembre, sarà disponibile in diverse versioni – tra cui CD, vinile e digitale – inclusa una "Super Deluxe Edition" che comprende cinque CD e un Blu-ray (come riportato da UCR).
L'album del 1966 è universalmente riconosciuto come uno dei primi doppi LP della storia del rock e come uno dei primi concept album. Questa nuova versione estesa di *Freak Out!* aggiunge 90 rare tracce dal vivo e in studio, molte delle quali inedite.
L'album fece conoscere al pubblico la rivoluzionaria fusione di generi di Zappa: con i loro brani corrosivi, lui e i Mothers puntavano il miro sia alla "Middle America" (la classe media americana tradizionale) sia alla controcultura.
Il brano conclusivo dell'album, "The Return of the Son of Monster Magnet" – della durata di dodici minuti e mezzo – recava il sottotitolo "Unfinished Ballet in Two Tableaux" (Balletto incompiuto in due quadri) ed era strutturato in due parti all'interno di un collage sonoro; un lavoro che contribuì all'evoluzione del formato album rock in un'epoca in cui la maggior parte degli LP era composta da un paio di singoli di successo, cover e brani di riempimento.
