I go out and party with fruit-fighting flamingos whenever I hear this absolute masterpiece. Samual Beckett wrote my life and Captain Beefheart did the score. RIP, Captain.

So many people ripped him off...

@Eltamir Windshield wipers & a passing train, from what I've read!

@1mcdiarmid "Come and whisper in my ear give us dirty laundry"."

I also feel that Don Henley is the master but I harley think this is the place for such discussion. Who's Frank?

@twenkmcwanzer not trying to sound profound i just think its true

[twenkmcwanzer]

@1mcdiarmid You took that statement from Jimmy Carl Black in some Beefheart Documentary on TV and are trying to represent it as your own in order to appear profound to people you've never met on the internet.

@tgarbrecht100 maybe you're not ready to let go.

Frank was good but Don was the master

@KoivuTheHab, he was around before the Residents, and The Mothers were running about the same time and sounded nothing like this. Stop reading Rolling Stone or all music and actually listen. I know alot of the no wave bands had to use him as blue print.

@Revanlation How exactly did anyone rip off Don and not any of the artists I mentioned? You are the one who made the first false comment...

[Revanlation]

I'll bite - How exactly did Don "rip off" Frank Zappa?

[KoivuTheHab]

@dahleric74 Or he ripped off The Residents or Frank Zappa and everyone rips them off and not Captain Beefheart...
