referencing Trout Mask Replica (2×LP, Album, Pitman Press, Gatefold, Auto-Coupled) STS 1053
Straight SMS-2222/3 1969 German Press.
Don Van Vliet and Magic Band's experimentation opera.
Pachuco Cadaver "A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous. Got me?"
Existentialism never sounded so in Time as in FUTURE.
Rock Surrealism pre Punk
Describe? Experimentalism in its purest form.
"My Human Gets Me Blues" has a satirical take on the idea of God and his attitude toward mankind." Dachau Blues" expresses worry for the fate of the Jewish people. "Wild Life" deals with ecological concerns Beefheart would further explore on later albums.
Listen in its entirety, Do not waste a drop! -
the pictures shows a comparison between the UK and German pressing... never try to compare the UK and U.S.A. pressing^^
