CAPTAIN BEEFHEART - PORTLAND OREGON 1981 - Floppy Boot Stomp

 Wow Enoch and the boys over at my favourite blogs are on first this morning! Two main men (Van Vliet and Lee, Arthur that is) and heavy duty too for sure.

Floppy Boot Stomp appropriately posts a Captain Beefheart set from Portland Oregon 1981

and while it warns it is slow to get the balance right from hiss and voice being mixed too far down it is highly listenable and a rare treat fro fans and let's face it who isn't?!?
