Frank Zappa - Watermelon In Easter Hay

WOW

I did enjoy hearing that song, Makes me wonder if even the great Frank Zappa was influenced by Hank Marvin and the Shadows.

Here is one of their big hits "Wonderful Land" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EriCZdLjw7o
From WikiPedia:
"Wonderful Land" is an instrumental piece written by Jerry Lordan recorded and released as a single by The Shadows in 1962. It stayed at No. 1 for eight weeks in the UK Singles Chart;[2] more weeks than any other single during the whole of the 1960s.
