Captain Beefheart-Top Gear 1968



Captain Beefheart
BBC "Top Gear" with John Peel
January/May 1968


Sound varies, especially on tracks 4 & 5 which seem to have been compiled from alternate sources. Overall I'd give it a B+,
very listenable, especially for the devoted fan--as which of us are not?

I never heard about them, but I'm sure they must sound like those hippie-english bands! Still, thank you, it is always great to listen to something new.
