CAPTAIN BEEFHEART & HIS MAGIC BAND

   Captain Beefheart was one of modern music's true innovators. The owner of a remarkable 

four-and-one-half octave vocal range, he employed idiosyncratic rhythms, absurdist lyrics 

and an unholy alliance of free jazz, Delta blues, latter-day classical music and rock & roll 

to create a singular body of work virtually unrivalled in its daring and fluid creativity. 

While he never came even remotely close to mainstream success, Beefheart's impact was 

incalculable, and his fingerprints were all over punk, New Wave and post-rock

Produced by Captain Beefheart himself, Lick My Decals Off, Baby was a further refining 

and exploration of the musical ideas posited on Trout Mask Replica. As such, the imaginative 

fervor of Trout Mask is toned down somewhat, but in its place is an increased self-assurance; 

the tone of Decals is also a bit darker, examining environmental issues in some songs rather

 than simply concentrating on surreal wordplay. Whatever the differences, the jagged, 

complex rhythms and guitar interplay continue to amaze. Those wanting to dig deeper after
