Captiain Beefheart

I'm Sure most of you have not heard of Captian Beefheart. His real name is Don Van VIlet, and he lives in a tralier, somewhere in the desert. From The early 1960's, until 1982, when he left the music business, he created some of the weirdest music commercially avalible. His Noted masterpiece "Trout Mask Replica", has been cited as an Avant-Garde masterpiece. His music was like Howling Wolf Jamming with Frank Zappa. He was Actually a friend of Frank's, and they actually recorded an album together {Bongo Fury}. Beefheart is also a noted painter, and he continued to paint after he went on permanant music hiatus. Check out his later works, espically "Bat Chain Puller" and "Ice Cream For Crow", I recommend them both.
