„Cherry Vanilla“ beschreibt Jon Mark als Wüterich:
Later that same night, I dropped the last tab in my acid stash and went with Priscilla to a press party for the Mark-Almond Band at the Café Au Go Go. At first it was all a bit surreal, because Jon Mark, the group’s bass player, unhappy with the sound system, had a bit of a freak-out — cursing, swearing, and smashing his mike, amp and guitar, before walking off stage in disgust. But as the night went on, things really got interesting. John Hammond, Al Kooper, and Long John Baldry had an amazing jam session together, and the Mark-Almond Band returned to the stage and performed brilliantly. And then, at a little after-show gathering around the backstage piano, John Baldry blew my mind by reading a couple of my poems aloud. They’d been published in a local rock and roll newspaper called Zoot, which Mark-Almond’s PR people had included in their press kits. It was the first time my poems had ever appeared in print and that was exciting in itself, but to hear Long John Baldry read them with that velvet voice of his and to such a select audience of musicians and industry insiders was absolutely thrilling for me.
