I
couldn't build a website titled "LAUREL CANYON STORIES",
especially one which spotlights the Log Cabin & the R&R
TreeHouse, located at 2401 Laurel Cyn. and Lookout Mountain,
without including at least one page on the Log Cabin's
most famous
resident, FRANK ZAPPA.
I had been avoiding this page because
frankly, the eccentric genius deserves an entire site devoted
to the musical legend and his extensive body of work.
Therefore, I'll wait until later to add other pages and
currently use this one to share some photos
(a few rare) of "THE MAN", some with the Mothers, with "the Freaks",
the Family, etc.
Most images are thumbnails, so make sure you click on them to view
the larger sized photos. Several appear on other pages, but deserve
inclusion here, as well. ENJOY! |
