The latter is his take on the '72 Zeppelin hit.        AT> "Don't go where the huskies go" sounds interesting. It's weird! I bet        AT> Frank heard that a few times before.              Forgot to finish the title which is...don't eat that yellow snow.               AT> My impression is that he was the "Weird Al" of the 70s, and maybe a        AT> precursor for alternative rock bands like Weezer. Am I getting it?              I would even go back to the 60's. In terms of Weird Al...he would take pop       hits & make them into novelties...while Frank would do much of his own with       Mothers of Invention. Dr. Demento (Barry Hanson) would play Frank once in a       while...but he was instrumental in giving Al his start.              ACME BBS-Member of fsxNet/WWIVNet/SciNet/AmigaNet/VKRadio/FidoNet/MicroNet.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A46 2020/03/18 (Windows/32)        * Origin: ACME BBS-W.Coyote & D.Brown are our best users.
