    How did Bubble Puppy get their name and how did their highest charting song gets its name?

    Question #114519. Asked by serpa. (May 04 10 10:21 PM)

    		The name "Bubble Puppy" was taken from "Centrifugal Bumble-Puppy", a fictitious children's game in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World.

    Bubble Puppy scored a Top-20 U.S. hit in 1969 with their single, "Hot Smoke & Sasafrass". The name was a misheard line lifted from an episode of "The Beverly Hillbillies".
