After the demise of HMS Bounty Merrell was now living with his wife and their young son, Tim in Canoga Park, Los Angeles. He carried on as he always did writing songs, teaching the guitar and playing with assorted musicians.
During the early part of 1969 he would visit his old friend and bandmate, Jeff Cotton who was now holed-up in a house in Woodland Hills as part of Captain Beefheart's Magic Band practising 14 hours a day to perfect the unique music that would appear later on the legendary 'Trout Mask Replica' album.
Merrell found his friend very changed and as the year progressed he became more and more concerned about Jeff's mental and physical health. This came to a head in what has become known as the 'Magic Bathroom' incident that resulted in Merrell finally helping to break Beefheart's spell over Jeff.
More information about this episode can be found on my Jeff Cotton site - Space Blues.
While recuperating Jeff and Merrell began playing music together. They were joined by two other ex-Exiles and musician friends from Lancaster - Larry Willey on bass and Randy Wimer on drums. They gigged around the Los Angeles area under a number of names before fate presented them with the name they felt comfortable with - Mu.
