Dory Previn released an Album called "Mythical Kings and Iguanas".
It features a song about Janis Joplin and how she bought a grave stone for famous blues singer Bessie Smith who died in poverty.JJ was pretty young and just making some cash when she bought the stone.The song goes on to talk about Janis' early death.
Another song called "Lemon Haired Ladies" is about when her husband Andre Previn left her for Mia Farrow
One song with the lyrics "goin home is such a ride" is similar to Camera Obscura's "Dory Previn" in that it yearns and analyses about love.
Another song about the Hollywood sign is based on the story of a starlet who jumped from the Hollywood sign.
Most of the work on Mythical Kings is autobiographical, funny, sad and easy to identify with.
