... sound of rebellion ...
Given to Zappa - one of the most original musicians in history - by a Hendrix roadie, this formerly sunburst Strat was burnt on stage by Hendrix at the 1968 Miami Pop Festival

You would think that the building where Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention and Lou Reed's Velvet Underground simultaneously recorded some of their most famous music would have some sort of plaque or historical marker. Instead most people have no idea that this building sits behind the Chick-Fil-A at Sunset and Highland.
The two buildings on either side of it have both been knocked down and are now active construction sites. And although it is not slated for demolition, I don't expect this historic building to survive. I doubt very much that it will still be standing by the time the Los Angeles Olympics rolls around in 2028.
The official address is 1441 McCadden Place. It was here that Frank Zappa recorded the first several Mothers of Invention albums including Freak Out, Absolutely Free, We're Only In it For the Money, and Hot Rats. And it is here that the Velvet Underground made White Light/ White Heat.
Additionally, the Doors recorded Waiting for the Sun in this building, Jimi Hendrix laid down the soundtrack to Rainbow Ridge, the Silver Apples made Contact, and Neil Young recorded Neil Young.

SPEAKING OF MOTHERS DAY -- GET A LOAD OF THESE CRAZY MOTHERS.
PIC INFO: Spotlight on behind-the-scenes from the cover photo shoot of "We're Only in it for the Money," the third studio full-length album by American rock band THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION, c. July 1967.
FUN/MOTHERS FACT: Unlike the stand-ins similar to "Sgt. Pepper," it’s in fact the real Jimi Hendrix that stood in between Frank and wife Gail (pregnant at the time with Moon Unit).
