Captain Beefheart passes away.

~~James~~ · 12-17-2010, 04:12 PM

Don Van Vliet, founder of the avant garde band Captain Beefheart passed away today. For me he produced some of the craziest music i've heard but at a very high quality. Possibly the most well known Avant-garde artists, he will surely be missed.
Safe As Milk, Lick My Decals Off and of course Trout Mask Replica are all fantastic albums.

****ing legend of a man. One of the best examples of somebody who proves you never have to play by the rules. Will be missed.

It's been a horrible year. I was discussing it earlier and 6 of the artists thta died this year have an album which I gave 9 or 10 out of 10.
