The Mountain-Ear, Volume 15, Number 4, October 31, 1991: Hot local band spawned at seafood counter
By Barbara Lawlor
Narrated by Dango Rose
Have you ever wondered how some of those musical groups choose their names? Is there any rhyme or reason? Take, for example, Steely Dan, whose name has its basis in literature, after an item in Burroughs’ risque Naked Lunch. The Talking Heads were named after newscasters, the headshots on a television screen. Procol Harum?—who knows? And one can only guess what prompted Ten Thousand Maniacs. But here in the mountains, learning the origin of Boulder County’s hottest group, Leftover Salmon, is easy. Just ask ’em.
