h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

And no, it isn't spelt wrong! A piece about two of the most influential musicians from the 60's & 70's, who have been sadly overlooked in the rock 'n' roll archives of the 'H' - another thing that will soon be rectified, we hope.
Enjoy!

And as an after thought, if anybody knows where the entry 'Dick Dale - King of the Surf Guitar' is now residing, I would be suitably indebted.
Need to link this piece to it, and can't find ol' Dick nowhere, not even in up and coming.
Any ideas?

Cool entry! I had not previously heard of these guys (except as the Turtles and MOI, but not Flo and Eddie) but now I will look out for them. I love learning about new music!

I noticed a couple of things: Warren's last name is spelled "Zevon". I might have to write an entry on him, huh? Also, you seem to have Flo and Eddie doing studio work for John Lennon in 1989. That's a little disturbing.

This is pretty much ready for the Edited Guide, I'd say. Way to go.

Found Dick Dale - just ran a search. There's the older version, but you'll want: http://www.h2g2.com/A506585
...which is currently marked 'recommended'.

Downright spooky I'd say...thanks for that kind sir, and many thanks for finding Dick Dale too; I ran a search and went through the alphabet, zippo! Ne'er mind, all done now!
I'll check out the Warren Ze(a)von thing and DEFINITELY peruse the Lennon dates!!
