Another of the giants of bad-ass music gone, we still have Dylan, Waits, Cohen and others but it ain't one of those tweens with mascara screaming about being insecure thats gonna replace em. Godspeed
Still sounds fresh and lively, the 2 dislikes obviously don't understand the works of the mighty Captain, considering the age of his music it still doesn't sound outdated!
one question i dont know much about this awesome band except that they play some quality tunes, where can i get theat suit that the bloke on the right is wearing its awesome.
Salvation Army is probably a good place to start looking LOL J/K. Yeah Captain made some great music love his Trout Mask Replica album. Jerry Handley's Bass on this song is awesome!
Trout Mask was not that great. Don had yielded to the temptation of commercial contract by then & had lost alot of that early innovative stuff that made the party happen
ZigZag was the serious deal. The whole first LP ("Safe as Milk") was like this. We denizens of the dusty desert resounded nightly with lofty lunar strains of ... "The Magic Band". This tune & Abba Zabba were ... "signature" ;-D
@sparkyization Trout Mask is so far out from just about anything anyone ever did, you either love it or hate it. I love dust blows forward, hair pie(bake 1), orange claw hammer, etc. But I fully understand how a lot of people hate that album.
Great tune indeed! As for the suit, get down to Camden stables market and visit A Dandy In Aspic which is owned by my good mate Caspar De La Mare - he does awesome vintage suits!
i laughed, though, when i saw that the 'featured video' to the side is nazareth's 'hair of the dog,' a song that in no way compares to the beefheart's magic.
Mine too. You would have those early gigs at Exposition Hall. Suddenly our town was on the map. We had stolen some of the glory from Quartz Hill who gave us all Frank Zappa
THIS SONG IS EPIC! One of his best! <3

These dudes were my homeTown band along with the Mothers of Invention. Cap'n an' Zappa were tight in those days and colluded on a bunch of projects
We were blessed to have such "eclectic" talent to bask in in those heady days of desert yore and the soaring sixties
We all got expelled from skool at one time or another! rofl!
