Vito Paulekas, sculptor, artist, and "dancer" was the L.A. "freak scene" guru in the early 60's, sponsoring "love fests" and parties. Several members of his "dance troupe", including Miss Christine and Miss Sandra, were 'squatting' at the original Log Cabin when FZ rented it. From then on, Zappa's life was inextricably linked to the L.A. 'freaks'.
Aside from a 7" single by "Vito and The Hands", produced by Kim Fowley, and featuring on some Mothers Of Invention work in 1966, he also provided vocal for Freak Out!.
Paulekas eventually became mayor of the small Sonoma town of Cotati, a hippie enclave near Santa Rosa, CA, where he later died from a blood disease.
