EBN-OZN - Bag Lady (I Wonder) - featuring Imogene Coca

As per request, here is EBN-OZN's video to their song "Bag Lady". They are best known for
"AEIOU - Sometimes Y". This video also features Imogene Coca, a very popular actress and comedian of the 1950s, especially on Sid Ceaser's "Your Show of Shows". Probably better remembered by younger viewers as Aunt Edna in National Lampoon's Vacation. I worked with her on a tour a revival of the musical "Whoopie!". A very sweet, and funny lady.

is that the aunt from Vacation?

[k8fan]

Yep! Imogene Coco was a brilliant comedian (most famously on "Your Show of Shows" with Sid Caesar) and, late in her career as "Aunt Edna" in National Lampoon's Vacation. She was also a genuinely nice person.

Thank you so much! I have been looking for EBN-OZN for years. I saw this video once or twice on MTV many years ago and liked it, but forgot about it. One night about 5 years ago, I was cleaning out some things and found a piece of paper with EBN OZN written on it, but couldn't remember the song. AEIOU was brought up by a friend, but it didn't seem right. Now I know it was this one that had made the impression. Thanks again for bringing a piece of my childhood home to me.

Glad to have made it available.

It's called censorship....on YouTube. Where have you been the last 3 months?!

I used to think I dreamt this video up. I would ask people if they remembered it, over the years, but no one did. Well, here it is. I love YouTube. Thanks for posting...

I love the serious turn to the camera where he shouts "BAG LAYYDAAAY"

It is a great mix of styles. One of my favorites and a cool video.

I remember reading about these guys back when this record came out. There was an article in Guitar World, with photos showing the guitarist surrounded by guitars and synthesizers. At that time, he was working with one of the first MIDI guitar synth units. When they went on tour, the entire band triggered synthesizers from their instruments, which was kinda unusual at the time (actually, it's unusual NOW).

@k8fan I heard the same thing, she was such a nice person in real life. I heard that when she read the script for National Lampoon's Vacation, she had doubts about whether she could play such a mean character. She kept asking the director, "Are you sure you want me to say this line? It's so mean".
