Captain Beefheart

Don Van Vliet ( /væn ˈvliːt/, born Don Glen Vliet; January 15, 1941 – December 17, 2010) was an American musician, singer-songwriter, artist and poet widely known by the stage name Captain Beefheart. His musical work was conducted with a rotating ensemble of musicians called The Magic Band, active between 1965 and 1982, with whom he recorded 13 studio albums. Noted for his powerful singing voice with its wide range, Van Vliet also played the harmonica, saxophone and numerous other wind instruments. His music blended rock, blues and psychedelia with avant-garde and contemporary experimental composition. Beefheart was also known for exercising an almost dictatorial control over his supporting musicians, and for often constructing myths about his life. more »

Those little golden birdies look at them 
And the mystic Egypt tossle dangling down 
Old sleeper-man shish, don`t wake him 
Up one hand broom star was an obi-man 

Revered throughout the bone-knob land 
His magic black purse slit creeped open, 
Let go flocks of them 
 
Shish sookie singabus 
Snored like a red merry-go-round horse 
And an acid gold bar swirled up and down, 

Up and down, in back of the singabus 
And the panataloon duck white goose neck quacked 
Webcore, webcore
