21st Century Mirror Men CD + DVD

Search: Moonlight On Vermont
by: Magic Band

Release Date May 16, 2005
I am a huge fan of this band and this music,but this realese is a MAJOR diaaspointment.The CD sound quality is strictly "off the board" and is muddy with no low end clairity (bass and drums are a mess when you can hear them).Some songs sound better then others.None sound great.Bootleg quality at best.The "DVD" is 5 songs shot from the back of the hall with a cam-corder intercut with a couple of hand held shots from in front of the stage.Thats IT.If you want to hear this group,you are better off getting "Back To The Front" or stick with the original albums.

Cb and Mb in Gb: Live

Search: Moonlight On Vermont
by: Captain Beefheart

Release Date September 01, 2008
I'm a huge CB fan but i'm sad to say this is total rubbish and a waste of money due to the awful sound quality and to be honest the interviews are just a time filler and totally stupid.
Dont buy it (At least Dick Turpin wore a mask)

Back to the Front

Search: Moonlight On Vermont
by: Magic Band

Release Date February 06, 2006
This is one of the best things I have heard in ages. I recently got hold of Mike Barnes great book about Captain Beefheart, read it, relistened to a huge stack of Beefheart and then saw this and bought it.

It basically vindicates Beefhearts choice of musician, top class, and his ability to create(I choose to avoid write as he basically gave the musicians strict instructions and examples of what he wanted in order to realise a notion that he had in his head as opposed to something that already existed) a damn good tune.

Gary Lucas and Denny Walley(ex Zappa and ex Beefheart) along with Mark Boston(Rockette Morton) and John French(Drumbo) really cook up a most potent brew. The Magic in Magic Band is totally appropriate. ... Read More:

The Dust Blows Forward - An Anthology

Search: Moonlight On Vermont
by: Captain Beefheart

Release Date May 22, 2006
This is an absolutely splendid release of a huge swathe of essential Beefheartian outpourings, including a couple of tracks that are unavailable anywhere else - Little Scratch and Light Reflected From the Oceands(thats how they spell it on the sleeve) of the Moon. Also, while I am mentioning rare tracks, this album has Hard Workin' Man, a track Beef did with Ry Cooder for the film soundtrack of the same name.

The quality of the remastering is of the finest quality. Kudos to the Rhino team who worked on this one. I had some of the original material on older cds and these versions are significantly better.

The set comes with a great booklet(any prizes for the biggest cd booklet included in a standard 2 cd case????) that neatly ... Read More:

Trout Mask Replica

Search: Moonlight On Vermont
by: Captain Beefheart

Release Date August 29, 1994
this is GENIUS. I know it seems hard to get into but it's not really. Once you, yes dare i say it, 'get it' then you will listen to hard zappa, varese, meshuggah, like it was abba. but that is to take away from this slice of magnificent music. listen, I'm just sparing you my brothers review which will, like other reviews, indicate this as the best album ever made. For those that have difficulty on these pages, grow up. and if you want to sing along, buy clear spot.

I wanted to be cool and say i have a captain beefheart album and be cool but not actually like the music etc
