The Experience featuring Zippy Caplan
Zip Caplan is the longtime lead guitarist for The Litter, the Minneapolis cult garage band often referred to as “…..the forerunners of the Punk Rock Movement” and who also recorded the cult classic “Action Woman”(represented on the Nuggets box set from Rhino). For a time in the 70’s Zip headed up the group White Lightning, did studio work in Los Angeles and later played a short stint with Johnny Winter. Zip Caplan is joined on this project by an old friend, Bernie Bomberg, who plays Keyboards on all the tracks in addition to acting as co-producer and arranger. Zip’s association with Bernie began back in the early 60’s when they first worked out a crude version of The Mummy. This short version was later re-worked and used on the highly collectable first Litter album “Distortions”.
