That's one of my favourite Captain Beefheart songs off my favourite album of his. Anathema's is new to me and after a quick scan I think that it will remain anathema to me no matter how many times I listen to it. That's a bit of exaggeration, I find the Anathema quite pleasant, but not electrifying.

Not prog but I like this "Electricity"
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Beefheart by light years.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

The great captain for me as well. Absolutely adore that tune as well as the whole album. Safe As Milk is my go-to record whenever I feel like swuoff...or swyiff for that matter.

Since people are mentioning other "Electricity" songs, and I've already posted my meaty organ choice in the actual options, I'm rather surprised that there's been no mention of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's "Electricity", which is purportedly inspired by Kraftwerk's Radioactivity.

Who knows as posts have been lost at this site before (especially when there have been upgrades). And I am surely about 75 percent insane, so join the crowd. ;)
