Hey Everybody,

What you will hear playing in the Comments section of this  is the very 1st Little Feat song I ever heard. It was 1972 and it was on a sampler LP from Warner Bros. records called "Zapped" which cost $2. It was promotional album from Warner Bros. that featured artists influenced by or who had played with Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention. I still love the Nixon era paranoia lyrics penned by Lowell George and his smokin' Slide Guitar on 'Strawberry Flats' as much now as I did way back in that Hot July Virginia Summer when I went to the Record and Head Shop to pick up some tunes and supplies with my hard earned cashola and put this little baby on the turntable.

Two of Little Feat's original members came from The Mothers of Invention, Lowell George on Guitar and Roy Estrada on Bass. Lowell was a very gifted songwriter and I have a post on 'Needs More Cowbell' for you all to check out about Lowell George and Little Feat.

of fishing still beats even the best days at work!

Hope ya dig it!

Been playing some with the new camera and this one of your buddy Prank in The Palace is not too horrible. Still trying to figure out all the settings for light and granularity, cool stuff. So I am hoping to get some nice shots this Summer, wish me luck...

Heading out to the day job real early Monday and it will be a crazy fun week. And I figured a good way to get this fresh week kicked into high gear is with one of my all time favorite songs which actually kinda sorta mirrors my life right now. I have it posted in my comments section if you would like to have a listen. I hope you all have a great week!

Our good Friend Lucy was curious about an animal native to the Western United States, Canada and even Mexico. The Jackalope is the result of an Antelope and Jackrabbit having...errr...sexual congress and pictured below is the result. I am always happy to share these tidbits about the Great and Wondrous American West that I am so privileged to have lived in for these past 22 years.

Some nice evening rains and thunderstorms this week have really greened up the Prankster's Garden A Mile High.
