Music Night, March 30, 2012

Posted on March 30, 2012 by jefffrane

Beginning next week, Music Night will have a new host. Unless I can persuade him otherwise, we will be alternating Fridays.

This is a really good video of some truly talented musicians. The front men, Flo and Eddie, went out to less-mainstream success in Frank Zappa’s Mothers of Invention, and over the years a ton of studio work (look ’em up).And they clearly knew how to have fun.

Maybe Terry will like this one.

That’s the best Turtles song, melody-wise, and it was meant as a spoof of syrupy love songs.

Now tell the folks why they were known as ‘Flo and Eddie’.
