Grunion Run, The Hollywood Persuaders (1963)Paul Buff was a Marine veteran who was making parts for guided missiles when he decided to go into the recording business. A multitalented musician and recording engineer, he needed a flip side for his band’s 45 of Tijuana Surf, so he contacted a 20 year old guitar player named Frank Zappa.

Saturday Matinee – Weapon Brown (trailer), Perch Creek & Deak Harp
Badass Chuck found here.
The Perch Creek Family Jug Band (since renamed Perch Creek) are four siblings plus a stray from Northern New South Wales, are currently based in Melbourne, Australia.
Deak Harp jams outside Deak’s Mississippi Saxophones & Blues Emporium in Clarksdale, Mississippi (2014). Guy got his bonafides by following James “Mr. Superharp” Cotton up and down the east coast before getting a job driving Cotton’s van (and THIS is a Mississippi Saxophone).
Lotta things going down these days, but that’s not news to anyone. In the meantime, have a great weekend and maybe we’ll see better things tomorrow. See you then.

He just hoped Linus was having more luck at his end. Snoopy grumbled anxiously at his feet. He knew it was time to move on. He hoisted his worn and mangled pack higher on his back, squared his shoulders and took a deep breath.
“Good grief,” he sighed.
The piece was created by three artists: The colors were done by Sean Ellery, the pencils by Max Dunbar, and the inks by Vitali Iakovlev. (Circa 2015)
