A benefit concert for the family of Jimmy Carl Black, original drummer for Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention, will be staged from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday at the Thousand Trails Campground, 4700 Crown Valley Road in Acton.
Black, of Cheyenne heritage, died Nov. 1 of lung cancer at the age of 70.
A 50-year veteran of the music business, Black toured and recorded with a large number of artists, most famously the Mothers of Invention.
Expected donations are $20 a person, $30 a couple and $35 per family of four. Children 12 and younger will be admitted free. All proceeds will go the Black family.
