@godfreyhowatchin Whats your beef with John French? Vliet was primarily a sculptor, he used the musicians to realise his ideas.John French was there at the start....without him transcribing the stuff the Captain would be unable to reproduce any of it.So take a chill pill and give John a break he is keeping the stuff alive and doing a great job of it...not Shitting on Beefheart but showing him respect.Read Lunar Notes and Mike Barnes's excellent book and find out what a Twat Beefheart was...

@godfreyhowatchin just trying his sad, old man's hardest to pretend to be cool, bragging about how all the drum lines were really his idea and not Don's, you've got the wrong documentary, shut that one off and burn it and watch the John Peel one.



Ive been a Zappa fan for many years and love "Bongo Fury" with the Captain.Just now getting into the Capn's solo stuff and am grateful for YT and all of the CB posts on here.Im blown away by the incredible musicians that played with him over the years.There was some serious mental perception going on between band members to play that stuff!That kind of chemistry cant be bought.The mainstream could never embrace this music.Its for the few who "get it."
