Review: Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band played music like Salvador Dali painted pictures: surreal. Like free jazz applied to rock. Lucas played with the band in a later edition in the '80s. Here, Hendryx & Lucas make the music more accessible in a variety of styles, occasionally slipping into Beefheart's unique approach. My show is named after a Beefheart song.
If You Like: Frank Zappa, Adrian Belew
Track Review (favorites denoted by *):
*1/ Sun Zoom Spark (2:01) – heavy guitar starts> jagged & frenetic uptempo song> quick stop
2/ My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains (2:42) - guitar starts> straight ahead midtempo love song> fade
*3/ Sure ‘Nuff ‘N Yes I Do (3:17) – guitar starts> midtempo song wings into a full tilt rocking boogie> quick stop
4/ I’m Glad (3:27) – guitar starts> slow doo-wop love song> fade
5/ The Smithsonian Institute Blues (Or The Big Dig) – marimba starts> uptempo off-kilter rocking song about archeology> quick stop
6/ Her Eyes Are A Blue Million Miles (3:37) – drums/guitar starts> midtempo mysterious love song> tasty guitar solo> slow fade
7/ Suction prints (4:12) - heavy guitar solo opens> straight out off-kilter instrumental rocker> quick stop
*8/ Sugar ‘N Spikes (2:11) - guitar starts> uptempo song swings wild> quick stop
*9/ When Big Joan Sets Up (3:42) – guitar starts> uptempo off-kilter song> bizarre instrumental break> off-kilter song> false stop> off-kilter song> quick stop
10/ Too Much Time (2:28) – guitar starts> straight ahead midtempo song about loneliness> quick fade
*11/ When It Blows its Stacks (3:22) – guitar starts> midtempo song> guitar solo> midtempo song with wild instrumental back-up> quick fade
*12/ Tropical Hot Dog Night (4:37) - guitar starts> midtempo off-kilter song with surreal lyrics> slow fade
