The Electric Mayhem. The Greatest Muppet band in rock and roll history. I always loved the fact that even as a little kid, I KNEW that Floyd was obviously stoned and Janice was a smack head. How cool was it that Zoot was modeled after sexy smooth jazz Saxophonist Gato Barbieri? And plenty has been written about the Mexican cat named Animal on the drums. Rolph the dog sometimes sat in with them, but to me the true star...the true QUASAR of ROCK in the band was the honorable Dr. Teeth. He was the friggin' Man. You know the song "Come Together"? John Lennon sings about 'Ol Flat Top, groovin up slowly, smokin' mojo filters, with juju eyeballs. Dr. Teeth is who I picture that song to be about. Especially the line "Hold you in his armchair, you can feel his disease" Serious.
Ladies and Gentlemen... The Electric Mayhem!
