Ed Barbar is one of the stars in the "One Size Fits All" (1975) "universe".
To celebrate, FZ organized a triumphal parade in front of the offices of Warner/Reprise Records, which distributed his DiscReet label. Kicked off by honorary parade marshal Ed Barbar, a notorious Southern California used-car salesman in a wheezy old Cadillac convertible, the procession transformed the quiet, tree-lined Burbank street into a scene redolent of Hieronymus Bosch. Band members and assorted colorful hangers-on straggled along chaotically, while FZ himself rode, grinning and waving, at the head of the parade, his 7-year-old daughter, Moon Unit, beside him. The funniest sight, however, was the Warner execs hanging out their office windows, scratching their Sassoon-coiffured heads and asking one another, "What the fuck is going on down there?"
