I finally discovered Beefheart. For years I assumed Captain Beefheart sounded like Captain and Tinnile and never bothered listening to the music . I was into Frank Zappa's music and that's where I first heard Captain Beefheart . Then I heard some of Captain Beefheart and the Magical Band and then full of gusto off to the record store I went .

This song was redone as 'Ice Rose' with Beefheart's new lineup on his 1978 album 'Shiny Beast'.

I’m so sad because I relize that I will never have the opportunity to listen to this live.

Don Van Vliet was way ahead of his time. He took 60s garage punk,
pushed it as far out as possible, and developed the foreground for
bands like Sonic Youth.

If it came out now it would still be ahead of its time
