frenchie, I would like to officially congratulate you. Now that you have accepted Beefheart your life is complete. Since you like that one, I recommend you purchase the albums Shiny Beast(Bat Chain Puller) and Doc At The Radar Station. You will love it! Btw, whats your favorite song Trout Mask, just out of curiousity ------------- "O' lady look up in time o' lady look out of love 'n you should have us all O' you should have us fall" "Bill's Corpse" By Captain Beefheart |

track 2 was a bit random! i love the hair pie bakes but i still aint got all the way thru the album, i am upto hair pie bake 2 and loved all the tracks before it. i am jus about to listen to the rest. clear spot sounds reli intruiging cos i downloaded clear spot and her eyes are a blue million miles and loved those tracks. giacas is lending me hot rats tomoro by zappa, i heard a track with beefheart on vocals which was immense. i love his voice. i found a track called the muffin man. it was live and has such an immense solo and was funny too! ------------- The Worthless Recluse

Muffin Man is actually a Zappa track. Trout Mask is weird so it'll take time to get used to. Clear Spot/Spotlight Kid are two really good albums but they're straightforward blues albums. Just keep listening to Trout Mask and you'll eventually understand Mr. Beefheart's Genius, but if you like his voice that's a good thing! ------------- "O' lady look up in time o' lady look out of love 'n you should have us all O' you should have us fall" "Bill's Corpse" By Captain Beefheart |

Pena is Crazy! That freaked me out when I heard that the first time. Another great track is Ella Guru. If you like Pena you will probably like the entire album.

who are fantomas? yah i remember stumbling across mr bungle on here and i thought whoa! mike patton went prog. he is in faith no more and the dillinger escape plan rite? i will check em out one day, as for now im excited about frank and beefheart. have you heard piper at the gates of dawn or ummagumma by pink floyd? that is insane as you can get, the first with syd barrett, writing about gnomes, bikes, scarecrows and a cat called lucifer sam. ummagumma has many crazy instrumentals, grantchester meadows has roger waters doing a gentle acosutic with birds humming in the background and a crazy man trying to swat a fly. the craziest tracks are careful with that axe eugene, roger screaming like a woman over a mental jam and "several speices of small furry animals gethered together in a cave and grooving with a pict" which has a crazy scottish commentator, alien jibberish and apparently lots of slang for sex (ummagumma is cambridge slang for sex apparently) i suggest you check em out for complete weirness. also there is the track "saucerful fo secrets" on ummagumma which sounds like a musical representation of a ufo landing! ------------- The Worthless Recluse

I haven't heard Umma Gumma but I love the Piper at the Gates of Dawn. I really love Bike! (Though it's not the best on the album) ------------- "O' lady look up in time o' lady look out of love 'n you should have us all O' you should have us fall" "Bill's Corpse" By Captain Beefheart |

FNM and DEP are hardly the best representations of Mike Patton's genius. That man is seriously out there, and for that I love him. Fantomas and Mr. Bungle are both crazy, and his solo stuff is some of the most experimental "music" I've ever heard. I put the term music in brackets because they're really just him making sounds with his voice. His work with John Zorn is also pretty intense (a little TOO weird for me though). |
