       I only got into Beefheart in the mid nineties, when somebody who is now dead gave me a copy of 'The Spotlight Kid'. Within a couple of months I'd just about got the entire catalogue.
        When I'm on the Captain's ship, I tend to stay a while. Nothing else will do. As some may have guessed, I'm on the ship at the moment.

And if you've got THREE HOURS to spare...The Spotlight Kid Out-takes 1972

       the first track later resurfaced 10 years later as Ice Cream For Crow in 1982...that's why he was and is a genius...
