Captain Beefheart

Finally I got everything on vinyl! From Safe As Milk to Ice Scream For Crow. I did have most on cd. But since I rediscovered vinyl as THE best carrier for music I had to rediscover the Captain as well. The final album to look for was Strictly Personal, his second album. I always read in reviews that this album wasn't his best effort, so I didn't care to look for it. But as my Beefheart collection wasn't complete without this record I bought it and boy, was I surprised!!! The critics say it's got bad production, but for me it's just as good as Trout Mask Replicas, or maybe even better. I'm used listening to garage so this "bad sounding" album is no problem. Great songs, amazing band.
