Brand new digital remaster! There?s always a good story behind a good album, and this has a particularly complex one. After the stress of selling himself to a major label (Mercury) and recording the two worst albums of his career, Don Van Vliet was one very p*ssed off musician, but following a tour with his good friend Frank Zappa he managed to rope a few of their touring musicians into playing with him again and set about recording an album which was to be titled ?Bat Chain Puller?. Sadly when recording sessions finished Zappa began to get into a legal dispute with his manager who he claimed was stealing money from him, the manager claimed that he had used the money to fund the ?Bat Chain Puller? sessions so Van Vliet lost all the rights to his music and the album was in stasis. Bootlegs surfaced from Virgin UK listening copies and were beginning to rekindle interest in Beefheart?s musical escapades, but the album had to be re-recorded before it could be released properly. Luckily what ended up coming out was Beefheart?s return to form ? a truly creative album with everything the fans wanted; humour, insanity and damn good songs. If you want to hear Van Vliet at his post-Trout Mask best then you absolutely need this album, and it?s never sounded better than it does now.
