Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan have had an interesting and varied musical career. They were founding member of The Turtles of 'Happy Together' fame. As the 60's came to an end, the Turtles dissolved. Mark and Howard ended up joining Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention under the nicknames Phlorescent Leech and Eddie. They continued as back up band members until Frank injured himself at the end of 1971 and the Mothers were put on hold.
Volman and Kaylan needed to work, though. They couldn't perform under the Turtles' name, as there were ongoing lawsuits from the dissolution of that band. So, they carried on and released several albums in the 70's under the Flo & Eddie moniker. Here is the title track from their 1975 release.
