American musical genius Captain Beefheart [Don Van Vliet] and his magic Band are one of those mid-1960s groups whose songs lived on thru the 69-70s "Psychedelic" music craze along with other underrateds like "Love" and "The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band" and obscure tunes like the original version of "She's A Very Lovely Woman" (popularized by Linda Rondstadt) and "Live" by the Merry-Go-Round.Truth be told, there was such a volcanic wash of music between 1966 and 1969, it's no surprise that a lot of sounds (like DIDDY WAH DIDDY) got lost in the lava. That was at a time when people in, say, Denver CO had never heard the #1 single in Chicago, and vice-versa!
Captain B recorded 12 studio albums between 1965 and 1982!
