Captain Beefheart was born as Don Glen Vliet in Glendale, California on this day in 1941. Today he would have been 81 years old.
this is THE Magic Band ( for me!) Ed Marimba Art Tripp III, Zoot Horn Rollo Bill Harkleroad, Drumbo John French, Rockette Morton Mark Boston, The Mascara Snake [Don's cousin] Victor Hayden and Captain my Captain, the good Captain Beefheart Don Van Vliet . . . . . . . .
John 'Drumbo' French (the archivist of the group!) had this to say . . . . . . at Rough Trade
PinkPop 74 - Mirror Man
What do you say Don . . . . . . . . ?
