This is my favorite Beefheart album and perhaps my favorite tune off it. Coming off the boot heels of the ground-breaking Grammy award winning Trout Mask Replica, Lick My Decals Off Baby is perhaps more streamlined and certainly just as much a masterpiece in IMHO.
I saw him at at show at Trinity Colledge in Harford, CT in1970. The opening act was a bunch of chimps doing tricks. The most memorable concert I ever went to.
Can you imagine what it feels like to have heard this for the first time two weeks ago. Well. I've been storing up listens like a squirrel stores nutz!
Since the Captain comes into the Death Valley Starbucks where i work and hangs out a lot with his Mac, he got to telling me the other day about how Geordie from Killing Joke actual plays guitar on this track. Imagine my surprise.

Beefheart is up there with The Beatles. Timeless brilliance. This will still be played in 100 years' time if the human race still exists.

@cacemphaton So Geordie played on Lick My Decals Off, Baby when he was 12? Hmm.
Seriously, sad about the Captain's passing.
