Captain Beefheart is dead R.I.P. His Music lives forever . American musician and artist Don Van Vliet, aka Captain Beefheart, has died 17 December 2010 R.I.P. PS: Before i had a video with the captains music . . but WMG blocked it . . . !
the think i admired most about captain beefheart, besides his music, is his open rejection of formal education.....something i deeply sympathize with.
duh, it wasn't talent per say, but a combination of will power and vision. An American original appreciated more across the pond. Responsible with Frank's help at forming a fun, creative and honest sound with lots of bumps, twists and turns...not to mention Humor...HELLO! His work can tell a story most could never consider or contemplate in TEN-THOUSAND YEARS(if you don't believe me, try to come up with something original, good luck).
@Parses6 How come, if he had no talent, he managed to influence so many other bands? The Captain was an absolute genius. I'd be somewhat interested to know what your idea of talent is.

Just glad to have lived in the same window of time as this great man. Gave a great deal to the world.

I do like Amon Düül II, but what are they doing in a Beefhaert tribute video???
Why not use the man's own music?

@Parses6 You only created that youtube account for trolling purposes so there is no point in educating your ignorant ass.
