This is the story of Michael J. Elzea (1948 - 1993) more famously known as "Captain Whizzo" or just "Whizzo." This video is an excerpt from the feature documentary film "The Chateau Liberte'" produced and directed by W.J. McKay of Goth Mountain Films.
Captain Whizzo was a quirky artist who lived at the Chateau Liberte' in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California off and on between 1970 and 1975. Whizzo was the creator of the psychedelic light show method of using oils and water and dyes and projecting to a stage backdrop at music venues. He was also an accomplished illustrator and satirist whose cartoons appeared in High Times magazine regularly.
Whizzo worked with hundreds of famous classic rock acts from the 1960's to the 1990's. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead were just a few of the many rockstars who knew and worked with Whizzo. Whizzo toured the world with The Charlatans in the early 1990's. This film includes some previously unreleased behind-the-scenes footage of The Charlatans on tour.
Captain Whizzo was a beloved figure at the Chateau Liberte' while he lived there and also after he left for New York City.
