Notes: Usually
discarded as one of his weaker efforts this record might also be
called one of the Captain's more accessible outings. Not the usual
bill of fare for those who dine with the Captain often, but still
there are a few nice pieces here and there. As well as some bad.
I'm not sure if this was a record company guided effort to get
some chart action or just a project to fill in the gaps until the
next ship full of inspiration set sail. This is a 180 gram British
pressing and sounds absolutely warm and wonderful. There is something
not quite right with the cover and its leaping beastie, a bit unsettling
maybe for some quiet reason. Not a record for the true Beefheart
disciple, but perhaps one to bring a new believer gently into the
fold .
