Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band
Del Montford Hall - Leicester - UK - 1972 - Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band:
Don Van Vliet- Vocals, Harp
Bill Harkleroad ( Zoot Horn Rollo)- Guitar
Elliot Ingbar (Winged Eel Fingerling)- Guitar
Mark Boston ( Rockette Morton )- Bass/guitar
Roy Estrada (Orejon )- Bass.
Art Tripp ( Ed Marimba)- Drums
The attire varied from the majestic to the downright loony. The majesty was supplied by Don Van Vliet , resplendent in his magnificent embroidered sun and moon cape and tuxedo. The loony element was catered for fully by Ed Marimba, wearing his long hair through the leg holes of a pair of women's panties in a strange parody of a viking helmet. Zoot Horn Rollo and Winged Eel Fingerling were pretty weirdly attired as well , sporting multi coloured coats and trousers. Rockette Morton veered towards the magnificent in his natty hat and suit , but this combination of attire was pretty mind jarring .
