Yoko Ono

This is not too far off from my place. When people won’t leave I put on some Captain Beefheart.

Sgt. Roast Beef and A Pound Of Cheese Band

My take on the “Sgt. Pepper” album cover with some of my favorites.

Zappa/Beefheart

It should be Zappa up in the sky since he’s the control freak but what the hell.

Rumpelton, The Beatles,And Other Strange Stuff

As some of you might know, I post computer art from Ralph Rumpelton. I have no idea who this guy is.

I have a friend who works in the art business and became friends with Rumelton. What I know is Rumpelton is a private guy so he wanted his friend to post the pictures for him. He didn’t have the time to do it so he knew that I liked music and wanted to know if I would post the pictures for him. I said sure, just have Rumpelton Email me the pics and I’ll do it. I get a kick out of seeing his stuff. My friend said it couldn’t be done. Rumpelton will send the pics to him and he’ll send them to me. I said fine.

I’ve been trying to find out who this guy is. From what I understand he comes from Scotland. A computer search came up with this picture

Looks Scottish to me.

Rumpelton has opened up a little and sent my friend some pictures of him. Here he is at a photo shoot with The Grateful Dead:at rehearsals for The Concert For Bangladesh:and the lat one sent to me, with The Mothers Of Invention:Rumor has it that Zappa kicked him out of the band cause he was trying to take over the band and give everybody a pay raise, and writing credit.

I heard that Rumpelton is working on another painting. I post it as soon as I get it.

I forgot. This one is just too hard to believe:

Zappa and Wilson

Today is Frank Zappa’s birthday

and Carl Wilson’s birthday

and they had that big hit together, “I May Not Always Love You Suzie Creamcheese.”

Would You Like To Hang Out With Your Favorite Rock Star?

I was thinking about this the other day.What musician would I like to hangout out with for awhile. Then it came to me that if I hung out with them and didn’t like them, I would hate their music.

 Hanging out with Frank Zappa:

Hey Frank, the Giants are playing the Dodgers. I got some box seats down the first base line. Lets go.

Baseball is boring. It’s for boring people

Well then, lets go to the bar and have a couple of beers.

Are you kidding me. Hang out with the riff-raff.

What do you want to do then?

I’m gonna go in my basement and compose. I’m a composer.

Hanging with John Lennon:

Hi John.

You’re nothing but a dumb little twit. I was in The Beatles.

Want to hear the new Oasis single?

They’re nothing but a forth rate Beatle copy band. They couldn’t carry our jock strap.

Where you going?

Me and Yoko are going out to spread the word of peace and love.

Hanging with Brian Wilson:
Hi Brian.Brian? Hello. You there?
