Captain Beefheart, has done some very interesting compositions that really played with my mind...I like how a lot of his stuff makes you hear several entirely seperate tunes simultaneously within a single song. May his consciousness enjoy 'the great gig in the sky', so to speak, for all time.

Although I haven't listened to Beefheart aside from Zappa's material, he was a great influence on many bands. Rest in piece Captain!

Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.

Zappa fan gigantus here
 . I�m the kind of fan that has both vinyl and CD versions of the albums. Since this is a Beefheart thread I would of course mention this one:
 But also this one:
 All I can say about the former is "Abnezra Kadabra". Beefheart sure had a thing with words and how to deliver them.

Sad news indeed. I only know Trout Mask and Safe as Milk from his solo career but as I�m a giant Zappa ( UncleMeatUncleRemus) fan I have the albums where Captain Beefheart participates.

He's one of the really interesting figures whom I never really made contact with... I'm still going to pick up some of his works at some point.
