I loved Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart!

[@RetroMusicMemories]

A couple of musical geniuses!

[@janfromseattle]

Now that takes me back! I haven’t thought of Captain Beefheart in such a long time!

Holy Shockwaves! Also, did you know that the two principals from the Turtles, the 1960s rock band, later joined the Mothers? They were playing when the Casino in Switzerland burn, which inspired the classic rock song Smoke On The Water.

hi dave.

[@RetroMusicMemories]

Hey Kenneth!

[@johncollins1884]

I guess fan mail was a huge thing back then. I thought the end was funny when the letter said "I hope you know this is a girl writing" lol 😆

[@RetroMusicMemories]

Yah...that part made me chuckle as well. 🙂

[@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti6854]

He died??????!??????

[@RetroMusicMemories]

Nah. That said, the song died a pretty quick death on the music charts in 1967.

[@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti6854]

@@RetroMusicMemories That's good. The song sounds like something that Dr. Demento would play. Off subject, I heard the sad news of Michael Nesmith's passing...☹

[@markthomas6703]

Of course that letter was written by a 50-year-old man.

[@RetroMusicMemories]

Probably!

[@mrled8555]

This song was so cringy! Tailor made for Dr. Dimento!

[@RetroMusicMemories]

For sure!
