   There’s a motel in Seattle Washington called the Edgewater Inn. The Hotel is built up on a pier …so that mean that…when you look out your windows you can see any dirt…

   La sai la storia, no…Tim ? :)

   Roba di groupies penetrate con squaletti appena pescati dall’hotel, tutto grazie a Richard Cole (road manager dei LZ) e membri dei Vanilla Fudge, durante il tour del 1969, episodio cantato da Zappa in Mud Shark…naturalmente non lo dico per un giovane vecchio volpone come te Giancarlo, ma per quei quattro o cinque lettori del blog che possono non essere a conoscenza della cosa.
   Che cosa doveva essere la vita on the road fine sessanta inizio settanta in america…ah!

   …grazie per il giovane unito al vecchio…

   The origins of the Mud Shark are as follows: There’s a motel in Seattle, Washington called the Edgewater Inn. The Edgewater Inn’s built on a pier.. so that means that when you look out your window you don’t see any dirt — it’s got a bay or something out in your backyard,,, And to make it even more interesting, in the lobby of the aforementioned motel there’s a bait and tackle shop where the residents can go down whenever they want to, and rent a fishing pole and some preserved minnows and schlep back up to their rooms, open the window, stick their little pole outside and within a few minutes actually catch a fish of some sort that they can bring into their motel room and do whatever they want with it… you know what I mean? Now in this bay there’s quite a variety of ah… fish! Not only do they have mud sharks up there, they got little octopusses that you can catch. And all these denizens of the deep can come in real handy… Let’s say you were a travelling Rock and Roll band called the Vanilla Fudge. Let’s
   say one night you checked into the Edgewater Inn Motel with a 8mm movie camera, enough money to rent a pole, and just to make it more interesting — a succulent young lady (Mnaaaah!) with a taste for the bizarre… My mind drifts back to a meeting, a chance meeting in the Chicago O’Hare Airport where the members of the Vanilla Fudge told Don Preston about a home movie they made at the Edgewater Inn with a Mud Shark. I’m gonna tell you, this dance, the Mud Shark, is sweeping the ocean!…
