Yes indeed, bestest get well wishes to Jimmy Carl Black!  I went to a concert of the Muffin Men a few years ago and I seem to remember there being some mention of him being in not such good health.  He was on good form though, I even got to speak to him and got his autograph! Big%20smile  Quite a lovely moment for a Mothersophile such as myself.  Hope he will soon be on the mend.

(Of course, he is 'Harder Than Your Husband', made of stern stuff indeed... LOL)

I only found out on Saturday when watching the excellent Muffin Men at the Cropredy festival, that one of the original Mothers Of Invention, Jimmy Carl Black is none too well:

Then:



Now:



Apparently diagnosed with leukemia 4 years ago & now in hospital undergoing further tests on his chest, he was unable to travel from Germany last week, so missed out on playing a triumphant return gig at Cropredy (when they last played 3 years ago there was nearly a riot when they didn't get an encore - hah! rioting folk fans, eh? )

I don't know if this subject has been covered before, but I'm sure all Zappa fans here would join me in wishing him all the best & hope for a speedy recovery.

Let's hear it for the Indian of the group!
