fz in nyc, 1967

the guy who owned the rekkid store on long island where i worked as a teenager claimed the distinction of having seen fz and the mothers of invention when they usedta play the garrick theater in greenwich village ca. '66. this is the kind of biz they used to get up to back then. note the presence onstage of theodore bikel (captain von trapp in the original broadway sound of music and rance muhammetz in 200 motels, prolly 'cos he and frank shared a manager, herb cohen). also note that billy mundi is playing drums while indian-of-the-group jimmy carl black plays trumpet.
