In the spring of 1969, the inauspicious release of Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band’s ‚Trout Mask Replica‘, a double-album featuring 28 stream-of-consciousness songs filled with abstract rhythms and guttural bellows, dramatically altered the pop landscape. This book examines how Beefheart’s opus is informed by a variety of diverse sources.
