Re: PSL/Birthday Bash #2: Bowie Tues 12th & /Beefheart Fri 15th January @ 9pm
I can't say enough about how much I love this song.
Am I reading too much into it finding it significant that "Bewlay" sounds so much like "Bowie?" Or that he's linking his biological brother with his "invented" name? As if he's hinting that his 'creation' is in part connected to his real-life reality?
Nah, I think I'm right on.

In fact I think the fact that he uses the same "crazy" voice on his cover of "See Emily Play" (written by another big influence with emotional problems) is another hint.

Interesting observations. I’ve never thought about a connection before. Now I will.

Floppy Boot is an incredible track
Bruce Fowler's trombone throughout the album adds so much
One of Zappa's boys is Bruce
