Picture of the Week | CAPTAIN BEEFHEART at the Griffith Park Observatory (1972)

Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band photo on the cover of Clear Spot (1972), taken by Jim McCrary at the Griffith Park Observatory

I don’t think I ever knew this was taken at the Griffith Park Observatory and it makes total sense but I think when it came out I thought it was the boys just hanging out in the studio!? Different kinda studio I guess. Perhaps they were just looking for a clear spot . . . . . . . . . . 

Observatory Crest . . . . . .sounds like Jan’s idea!?
