2006 digitally remastered reissue of this 1974 album. Nine tracks including the gorgeous 'Observatory Crest', inspired by the Griffith Park Observatory where Beefheart often went to watch the sun set over the LA skyline, Features extensive liner notes written by Beefheart expert Mike Barnes. Virgin.
I love the weird, discordant early Beefheart as well as anyone, but this might be my favourite album of his. Purists sneer at this band, lacking as it does Z. H. Rollo, W. E. Fingerling et al, but they handle these songs really well. "Further Than We've Gone" has a long, genius guitar solo, and the title track is one of the sweetest, happiest rock songs ever. (I must be brave, using words like "sweet" and "happy" in a Beefheart review. I can't wait to see the comments by REAL Beefheart fans :-) I spent 25 years looking for a fresh copy of this album and its stylistic twin: "Unconditionally Guaranteed," and I'm delighted.
