Sorry for continuing an off-topic thread, but I'm confused about this
message and require enlightenment. (Now! Just do it!)
Captain Beefheart and his Magical Band were a 60's/70's group, and
definitely not a cover group. Albums like "Trout Mask Replica" (the
only title I can remember off-hand) we're on the very fringe of the
avante garde, further out than Pink Floyd before P.F. went
mainstream. Trout Mask Replica came out in approximately the same
time period of Pink Floyd's Umagumma, which included the track
"Several species of small furry creatures gathered in a cave and
grooving on a pict."
I had read somewhere that Captain Beefheart lived in a trailer in the
Nevada desert.
Has the band been reconstituted and moved to Sweden? Has someone
appropriated the name? Is it a weird coincidence (twisted minds
think alike)?
