Flo and Eddie: Flo & Eddie
Charles Shaar Murray, NME, 26 May 1973
MR. HOWARD KAYLAN and Mr. Mark Volman are a somewhat literal-minded pair. When they originally left the protectve aegis of Frank Zappa to strike out on their own, they called themselves The Phlorescent Leech and Eddie, and their first album was titled accordingly. Now, things are on a more familiar basis, and so both group and album are entitled, plainly and simply, Flo & Eddie.
