I figured there had to be some old threads about him on TC. For any Frank Zappa fans there is an interesting nod to Korla (as "Korla Plankton") in the lyrics to Excentrifugal Forz off of the Apostrophe(') album: There's always Korla Plankton Him 'n me can play the blues An' then I'll watch him buff that Tiny ruby that he use He'll straighten up his turban An' eject a little ooze Along a one-celled Hammond Organism Underneath my shoes

Underneath my shoes
