CAPTAIN BEEFHEART & MAGIC BAND Trout Mask Replica
(1969 first UK issue 28-track double vinyl LP, the Captain's
Dadaist masterpiece, as produced by Frank Zappa & released
on Frank's Straight label, gatefold picture sleeve. Now
regarded as the pinnacle of Beefheart's early achievements,
it's hard to imagine the impact this album must have had on
first release. See 'more info' for condition details... STS1053)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
This legendary album is far from 'easy listening' but is none the less an essential 'must have' in any collection. Mr Van Vliet & his band took the conventional ideas about music & composition & turned them completely on their heads to create an album which still, to this day, stands as one of the benchmark recordings of its kind.
This copy has the ORIGINAL Straight catalogue numbers on both sleeve & labels, meaning that it was the first release in 1969 before changing to the more common Reprise pressing.
Unlike the US pressing, the sides are labelled [& play] in order, rather than the 1/4, 2/3 arrangement on the US vinyl.
Details (From liner Notes) :-
ZOOT HORN ROLLO: glass finger guitar, flute
ANTENNAE JIMMY SEMENS: steel-appendage guitar
CAPTAIN BEEFHEART: bass clarinet, tenor sax, soprano sax, vocal
THE MASCARA SNAKE: bass clarinet & vocal
ROCKETTE MORTON: bass & narration
DRUMBO: drums [not listed on original liner, only CD reissue]
CAPTAIN BEEFHEART plays tenor & soprano sax simultaneously on Ant Man Bee, simran horn & musette on Neon Meate Dream; ANTENNAE JIMMY SEMENS sing lead vocal on Pena & plays flesh horn on Ella Guru; special guest artist DOUG MOON plays guitar on China Pig;
Produced by FRANK ZAPPA
Arranged by DON VAN VLIET
Engineered by Dick Kunc
Album design: Cal Schenkel
Photography: Ed Caraeff/Cal Schenkel
Special electronic modifications on Captain Beefheart's band equipment by Dick Kunc
Most recent in a long series of contract negotiations leading to an actual signing: Neil C. Reshen

Both vinyl discs grade VG- with light paper hairlines & scuff marks which have little effect on play. We have conservatively graded this copy GOOD overall.
