7/4 Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 Hell...I'm glad both groups exist. But I really like the Fast 'n' Bulbous disk a lot. Let's say Back to the Front is for hardcore and completest fans. Quote
BFrank Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 The Mallard albums have Beefheart-like vocals, but they are different enough that it's not a problem. Also they aren't doing covers. Good albums, though. Pick 'em up if you can find them. Have they ever been released on CD? Quote
Spontooneous Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Hoy hoy! I'm pleasantly surprised by the depth of Captain fandom at Organissimo. Another reason to hang out in this place. Want Captain on video! Tonight let there be ice cream for crow. Quote
Chalupa Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 I really like "Safe as Milk" (and "TMR", of course....) Quote

Now that I am giving this a spin, I know why I haven't listened to it in years. Mallard is the Magic Band with out the magic and Sam Galpin is not a Captain. Edited February 24, 2005 by 7/4 Quote

Hot rats . . . Hot cats . . . Hot zits Hot meat . . . Hot feet . . . Hot rats . . . Hot cats Quote
BFrank Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 I still like Mallard. Have to look for that CD. Quote
7/4 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 (edited) I still like Mallard. Have to look for that CD. No dis, it's just not magic. They hit some nice grooves on the debut, but the guitar solos and fusion strike on the 2nd effort. Edited February 24, 2005 by 7/4 Quote
nemo7 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 long time ago heard he was splashin paint on thick windows and sick listnin at the radioi dunno 4shurt Quote
7/4 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 no one gives a flying fuck. I like his paintings. Have you ever seen any his his work? Quote
Jazzdog Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Personally I'd rather listen to the Captains music than look as his artwork...that one is pretty cool. Run paint run run!! Quote
7/4 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Posted January 15, 2006 Happy Birthday Don Van Vilet, 65 years old today! Quote
BFrank Posted January 15, 2006 Report Posted January 15, 2006 It bugged me a little that NPR referred to him this morning as "excentric musician, Capt. Beefheart". Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 15, 2006 Report Posted January 15, 2006 Happy Birthday Don Van Vilet, 65 years old today! Awesome! Tip o' the hat to ya, Cap'n! Quote
BFrank Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 Anyone know the state of his health these days? Quote
