Captain Beefheart - Bluejeans And Moonbeams - 1974
In the history of music, there were some musicians / bands who dared to be different. Experimental. Don Van Vliet, known as Captain Beefheart, dared to be different. Just like Pink Floyd and Frank Zappa. There may be a Frank Zappa song at some point. I can think of one for December. As for today, continuing with the idea of songs for a summer night, this is a song I have discovered in the last few years. It's usually a good thing when you play a song on repeat over and over, especially if there's a good melody. This song is one I do know from Don Van Vliet - Captain Beefheart - and it fits in very well with looking up into the sky on a summer night. Enjoy!
