transfer by JBK/mcchocchoc from the Archives at The Shielded Vessel at some
point during the year 2001.

Many folks have copies of these tracks in one form or another. I have collected many different versions over the years. I believe that the recordings I have here still sound best to my ears, so because of that I figured I would share them. Last year I shared these copies with a longtime, hardcore trader ( for a second opinion ) and he also agreed. They sound awesome. See what you think ! You might agree, you might not. Either way, the sound here is Excellent. I transferred 2 of the tapes as they are. Raw. No eq, noise reduction. Nothing. Straight transfer. Same running order as the cassettes. The titles are also as written on my tapes. ( I have seen different titles or variations of words for several of the tracks here. ) ENJOY ! ! !

Musicians > > >
Captain Beefheart - Vocals/harp/horns
Zoot Horn Rollo - Guitar
Drumbo - Drums
Art Tripp - Drums, Percussion
Rockette Morton - Bass, Guitar
Winged Eel Fingerling - Guitar ( solos ) ( I know this because many years
ago I gave copies of these tapes to Zoot and he told me that was who played the solos ).
