It takes a while to get used to. Unless of course your a weird guy, then it comes naturally.

"Doctor Dark" one of Beefheart's most amazing compositions ever
Totally bitching from beginning to end, had a go at counting the changing time signatures oh Magic Band how they swing !
Intro Guitar + Drums : 7/8 leads to
Section A 4/4 + B 4/4
C 6/4
D Guitar and Bass 9/8 (phrased 4/8 + 5/8),
E Bridge Riff 2/4, Guitar and HiHat unison 12/8
Reprise A 4/4
Outro Guitar/Bass 6/4
....all in under 3mins ... sweet

The Cap'n sounds a little like a demented, alternate-universe Van Morrison at the end of this song

With Trout Mask and Decals released so soon together, both albums helped me survive high school. Some have JD Salinger as teens. I still have Captain Beefheart.

@Drunkenmo lmfao, that's amazing, considering how much don did for the acceptance and understanding of the schizophrenic mind. If Don hasn't read Deleuze and Guattari I will/would be very surprised....

@yesfan951 I must say, as with many of my all favorites/life changing records, I couldnt understand shit the first 2 or 3 times I heard this, my brain was collapsed, but I was amazed, astonished, inloved. Never stoped listening to the Don after that.
