A rock photographer I know gave me some tapes of The Edgar Broughton Band's unreleased sessions with FZ. The thing is, there were two tapes. One was the Zappa production and the other, the released re-recording.
Now I can't stand to listen to them, but would anyone know more on which album this is? They're not even labelled.
Unrelated but similar - does anyone know which version of Kevin Ayers' 'Singing A Song In The Morning' features Syd Barrett, and which doesn't?
My guess is that the single version is the Barrett-less one, but that's _just_ a guess...
Anyone know what Moon-Unit is doing now?
She's writing.
She did a talk (series of talks?) at the Edinburgh Book Festival and was in every newspaper magazine supplement, up here.
Dunno whether she's any good, but there seems to be plenty of hype.
I thought Zappa really stitched poor old Miin Unit up in the name department.
Why couldn't he have given her a sensible name like Lunar Excursion Module?
He called his son Dweezil, so I reckon the daughter got off lightly.
She was on Festival Of Fun trying to launch a stand-up career at Montreal a few years back.
Personally I never thought Frank Zappa was as good after he left Europe, stopped writing novels and changed his name from Franz Kafka.
