Note the vaccuum cleaner in front of the drum kit. Before he was the Captain young Don Vliet sold them door to door. He showed up at Aldous Huxley's house one day and made his pitch. Huxley asked "but does it work?" Vliet said "I can assure you, sir, these things really suck." Huxley bought one on the spot. True story. 😃

@@vollsticks It has almost become a sport now to dismiss any larger than life tale that Don Van Vliet told over the years. The story about Don calling at Aldous Huxley's door in the 1960s has been confirmed as true, whether he had that exact conversation with him or not. He was not alone when he did it - he was with a friend who was also a Huxley fan like Don. This man recounted the actual story on a facebook post in recent years although he did not recall the 'This thing sucks' line from Don. If i find the original post i will let you know.

@@castfatshadows2255 I generally tend to focus on DVV's tales about the composition of the music and claiming credit for this or that or the other...I take it you've seen the Samuel Andreyev videos with the TMR principal players (French, Harkleroad, Cotton--he must have done some work to track done Jeff Cotton, I'm pretty sure John French couldn't contact him for Through The Eyes Of Magic, could he?)? If not check them out, they're so interesting and unmissibal for any hardcore Beefheart head.... I'm also interested in the "weirder/paranormal" stories you hear about DVV--if you've read TTEOM do you recall the story of him "visiting" a friends' wife? That's very fucking strange. I'd say the Aldous Huxley story is probably one of the MOST believable anecdotes, it's cool that it has been corroborated. "Sir, I can assure you this thing sucks" just sounds TOO perfect, doesn't it, though?! So did Don and his accomplice know whose house it was? I expect it was probably common knowledge that a world-class literary genius was living in the area at that time, I wasn't aware of Van Vliet being a fan. In fact I think there's a quote from him in the Mike Barnes book that says "I only read one book in my whole life" (he might have said two, can't remember exactly--definitely no more than two books, though) but again that's probably hyperbole. I'm 80% sure Don had more than a passing familiarity with James Joyce and The Beat authors, particularly Kerouac...

@@aakkoin The band was very rehearsed. They had to be, with music that complicated. "Spontaneous" is is not, except for the saxophone bits, but that was because he couldn't have played the same thing twice if his life had depended on it. It may sound "spontaneous" at first listen, but it was all very carefully written out and arranged by John "Drumbo" French, the drummer in this video. Don van Vliet actually did not know what he was doing. That was sort of the point.

Late reply but search Captain Beefheart Detroit Tv and you'll find the whole taped-for-tv performance. Complete with "wiggly toes" "interview. This version has much better sound, though, the complete performance is rubbish. Off the top of my head it's Got Big Joan, Mark Boston's Hair Pie bass solo, Bellerin Plain and Whoa-Is_A-Me_Bop. I might be missing something, it's easy to find though. The French Bataclan TV performance with the Ice Cream For Crow Band (except Robert Williams is on drums and Eric Drew Feldman is on bass/synths) is a FANTASTIC late-period performance and they sprinkle in some old classics with new Shiny Beast/Doc stuff. If you haven't seen it, check it out. Incredible performances of Dirty Blue Gene and Big Eyed Beans From Venus. It's about 9/10 tracks deep iirc. Also the Detroit TV performace this is taken from is on the Grow Fins CD set DVD--good luck getting a cheap copy if you don't already own it, though. I bought the set on vinyl which didn't include the DVD unfortunately :(

@KoivuTheHab Sorry, I actually gave out some false info: TMR actually WAS played with the TMR band, but only once, The Amouges Festival has a Bill Harkelroad who has attempted, and succeeded in many cases, in learning Jeff Cottons guitar parts and playing them along with his own. Talk about dedication...according to Lunar Notes he worked out which track's it'd be feasible to approximate both parts at the same time, and he damn well did it! The actual first live performance with Zappa, the G.T.O's, Art Tripp and most of the rest of the Mothers watching from the side of the stage was at a legendary venue the Aquarius Theatre, March 31st 1969. And thanks for the grammar correction, btw

You’re absolutely right. Don Van Vliet’s music can sound random or chaotic at first listen, but it is anything but that. For his greatest album, Trout Mask Replica, Don made his band live together in a house and practice all day, every day for eight or nine months in order to perfect the contrapuntal complexities and crashing rhythms of his songs. Then they recorded.

Captain Beefheart (Don Vliet) was one of the very few true musical geniuses of 20th Century popular music, along with Brian Wilson, George Gershwin, and just a few others. He left us at least four masterpiece LPs (Trout Mask Replica; Lick My Decals Off, Baby; Bat Chain Puller; and Doc At The Radar Station), along with a bunch of other superb music on nine more albums. He was also a brilliant abstract painter and sculptor and a very evocative poet. He was an iconoclast in the best possible way.

I bought Trout Mask Replica when it first came out, and around that time I was listening to avant-garde jazz like Steve Lacy, a soprano sax player who, unlike Beefheart, knew how to play the instrument.

The hat with the shuttlecock (badminton "birdie" for the uninitiated) pretty much says it all for how awesome, different, and out there the Captain was. He was one of the best ever at staying off center, being too predictable and dumb, and completely preventing people from pigeon-holing him.

IMHO, Mr. van Vliet had the greatest (bar none) rock/blues voice of his era. This is borne out by the fact that Frank Zappa (from what I understand, a high school classmate) chose him to fill in as vocalist on tour, knowing full well his penchant for idiosyncratic behavior; if the demanding Mr. Zappa was willing to tolerate the occasional quirk, then we can all rest assured that the ends justified the means. RIP to both.
