New Mullet on Monday - Ebn Ozn
Back in the day, watching the video for Ebn Ozn's AEIOU Sometimes Y resulted in a few laughs. Today, there are more laughs (and/or groans) -- the hair, the yellow pants, the loafers, the mullet...and not only do we get to see a mullet, but a wacky, swirly mullet enhanced by multiple, long rat tails. New Mullet on Monday just doesn't get much better than this.
Am I the only person germophobic enough to cringe when she bites the apple?
According to Wikipedia, AEIOU Sometimes Y, was the first American record to ever be completely executed on a computer.
Post Ebn Ozn Report:
Robert "OZN" Rosen, a.k.a. Robert Ozn, went on to form dance music act Dada Nada, and his own label, One Voice Records. More recently, Ozn worked in the movie industry. He is now said to have left the entertainment biz, spending his time between New York City and Rio De Janeiro. Check out his Wikipedia entry to read his interesting biography.
Alas, Ned "EBN" Liben passed away from a heart attack in 1998, at age 44. Liben, who built his first professional recording studio at age 14, had worked with, among others, Jimmy Hendrix, The Talking Heads, The Ramones, & Ravi Shankar prior the Ebn Ozn days. Liben had continued to work in the music industry up to the time of his death.

Boy, did THAT produce major flashbacks! The biting apple thing didn't freak me out that much, so maybe it is you...
lol
When we shot their video, the boys were cool... they are visionaries.. really... but we were coming out of the 70's and this is how American rockers dressed- at least those who hadn't yet embraced the British fashion invasion. By the way, we found the kid at Julliard Music School. We made a donation to the school and got a room full of great young musicians. When you see them playing to the song, ALL of them picked it up first time- by ear... amazing.
