Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - The Legendary A&M Sessions




EP released in 1984 . Tracks lifted from a pair of singles Beefheart and the Magic Band released in 1966. Produced by David Gates of Bread, the Guitar Man will never sound the same after this. Gates also contributed one of his own songs Moonchild. No streams of weirdness on show here. The Magic Band rocked..
