  • Description

    John French's memory recall is extraordinary. Add to this, interviews with many ex-Magic Band members and associates, and you have a remarkable book, a treasure trove for fans of Beefheart and his music, full of fascinating insights and startling minutiae. Not only that, it is well written with no holds barred, cutting through the layers of myth that have attached themselves to the Beefheart legend over the years although this sometimes makes for uncomfortable reading ... but if you want the inside story of how some of the most original and challenging music in rock was created by someone who helped create it, then this book is essential!

    Description

    This is the "Paperback Edition" of this mighty tome originally published in hardback in 2010. Written by the man who spent more time than anyone else with Don Van Vliet and The Magic Band this book serves as the definitive book about the group.

    Clocking in at nearly 900 pages with 16 pages of very rare and often previously unpublished photos. Tracing the history of the group it includes reminiscences from key members of The Magic Band and The Mothers Of Invention. There are amazing stories about the recording process, particularly Trout Mask Replica, and life on the road with the Captain.
