Captain Beefheart - Moonlight On Vermont

[@9reyling]

“Once you’ve heard Beefheart, it’s hard to wash him out of your clothes. It stains, like coffee or blood.” ~ Tom Waits

[@eschneider8799]

Funny, that's how l feel about Tom Waits & he's why l'm here cuz l just read that Tom was a fan of Beefheart. ✌️

[@DrPangloss]

I would suggest China Pig as being more mainstream.

Nobody like ol' Cap'n! Guaranteed to clear the room of anybody you don't think belongs at the party!

[@brianm2881]

+37Dionysos To be honest, if you put this on and everybody started dancing, then that would be a weird scene. I don't think you'd want a room full of people dancing to the captain. Limbs would be flailing arrhythmically and all the girls would look like Sweet Dee from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia whenever she tries to bust a move (which isn't pretty).

Before this song, the album makes you think “this is a joke, they’re making this up on the spot.” But then when you hear this song, its too composed to be random, but still just completely bonkers. Its then that you realize “Holy shit, this whole album is for real.”

[@mavjimbo]

Live China Pig

[@wonbadood8243]

I had to force myself to listen to this album 3-4 times (30 yrs ago) only to notice that I was probably musically programmed by local media and society as acceptable at any given time. Every time I listen something in a song will hit me that i hadn't heard before. There's a lot going on in this work of art.

[@MickyRichards]

@@wonbadood8243 to me this is a good example of an album you need to listen to many times to let sink in.

"Holy shit, this album is for real" THANK YOU for this quote. It perfectly captures the experience of listening to the album track by track and running into this banger

[@NickOleksiakMusic]

Probably the most accessible song off the album. It’s catchy in its own demented way, especially the opening bit. When he randomly goes into “Old Time Religion”, it’s a trip.

The first time I heard Captain Beefheart was on Frank Zappa's song Willie The Pimp. I assumed whoever Captain Beefheart was, he was a black guy in his sixties. Blew my mind when I found out he was a young white dude.

[@allowedsoundstudiorecordin1115]

That's coz he essentially doing Howlin' Wolf.

[@crappyaccount]

He does kinda sound like a brother

[@Marco_Venieri]

i've dicovered him in the same exactly way, listening willie the pimp. he had a very growling blues voice, like jim Morrison and tom waits

Amp turned up to ten by FZ during recording to give it a bottle neck sound. Very tasteful.

[@tomasvanecek8626]

@@conradmason87 This and Veterans Day Poppy was recorded months before TMR.. but I can see you know that ;).. most likely it was a different studio from where TMR was recorded. Zappa handed Bill a Tele with Gretsch pickup... and turned all knobs on that silverface fender to 10... Bill didnt like that piercing sound at all .. so he says anyway You can clearly hear these two numbers sound different from the rest on TMR, even Dons voice... but Veterans Day Poppy is my soft spot still.. that overlapping fade out/in of the two guitars in the final part.. it gives me the willies after all those years ;)

[@RedNightDragon1]

@@tomasvanecek8626 Moonlight and Veteran's were recorded at Sunset Sound Studios, ten years before Van Halen recorded their debut at that same studio.

I am a Beefheart fan too, but most of you seem unaware that the second part of "Moonlight on Vermont" was not written by Don. The section (Gimme that) "Old Time Religion" is a traditional gospel song that dates back to the 19th century, and it has been recorded by many other performers including Dolly Parton and Willy Nelson. I must admit though that the Magic Band have created my favourite arrangement.

Fun fact - when he sings "Come out to show them", he's referring to the Steve Reich composition "Come Out" from 1966, which, in turn, loops the voice of Daniel Hamm, one of the Harlem Six protestors who were arrested in 1964... referring to his having to puncture his bruise that he received while being abused by guards in prison so he could let the blood come out to prove it. Madlib used a sample of the Reich song in "America's Most Blunted" on Madvillainy, his 2004 collaborative album with MF Doom.
