With the speculation that the Zither-Gram songwriting team is due to make a return with several new compositions, the music media has launched upon a predictable orgy of ill-informed gossip, mistruths and calumnies. Metamusic provides the following as a service to loyal fans of the Anachronisms and hopes that these Q&As will encourage the media to be more cautious in their gossip, mistruths and calumnies.
Who is Ezra Gram?
Ezra Gram is the pseudonym of one of Canada’s top CEOs, who, in addition to his legendary songwriting collaboration with Duke Zither, is a former semi-professional tennis player, a scratch golfer and a member of Canada’s World Champion parchesi team. He is also a gourmet cook and has won the award “Person most likely to say ‘rart’’” for the past ten years.
Why do some fans refer to him as the thirteenth Anachronmism?
Anachronisms fans are not known for their numeracy.
Are the rumours about Ezra and Grace Slick true?
Yes
Are the rumours about Ezra and Jerry Falwell true?
Only the one about the hosepipe and the can of sardines.
Was “Prom Sluts from Mars” based on a personal experience?
It will be.
Does Duke write the lyrics and Ezra the words or vice versa?
No, the other way round.
Did Duke introduce Ezra to drugs or vice versa?
They both got them from Barry Bonds.
