Underground classic, absolute genius and one of my favourite albums of all time. Crank up the volume. Yes, it's warped and weird but this is easily the most accessible of all of Beefheart's albums. It features a 20 year old Ry Cooder, who is magnificent throughout. There's a real mix on here: "Sure 'Nuff' and Yes I Do" starts off like a straightforward Delta Blues before being amplified and injected with Amphetamine, "Zig Zag Wanderer" has a heavy R&B baseline and the R&B theme continues with what has to be the most "pop" tune he has ever done, "Call on Me". Nothing is mainstream though, there's sharp jangly guitars cutting through the horns gently fading in and out as as the percussion phases from left to right. Then you're hit with the weird, grungy, heavy "Dropout Boogie", the mood totally changes for the sentimental "I'm Glad" with it's Doo-Wop backing harmonies and the side finishes with the weird, high voltage, up tempo "Electricity" which utilises the Theremin to great effect. Side Two starts with the folky- rock "Yellow Brick Road" followed by " the pure psychedelia of "Abba Zabba" - Ry Cooder takes the bass here to great effect. Next comes "Plastic Factory" which sounds like Howlin' Wolf on Acid. "Where There's Women" is a touching tune with beautiful lyrics. "Grown So Ugly" is the only cover on the album and like the opening track is like heavy, psychedelic, Delta Blues. The album closes with the trippy, beautiful "Autumns Child" which again utilises the Thremin. Everyone should know this album.

(EXCERPT FROM AN ONLINE REVIEW BY HENDRIX LOCKHART, ALL MUSIC GUIDE /ALLMUSIC.COM/)

Ladies and Gentlemen: we have a high privilege of presenting one of the most important albums in the history of Rock, by one of the most original, inventive and creative minds of the idiom. Captain Beefheart was nothing if not genius, as this freshman effort amply illustrates. And then, there's this gorgeous slide guitar of Ry Cooder which sets the whole combustible combination on fire. No self-respecting record collection should be without this one..Track Listing: Sure 'Nuff 'N Yes, I Do - Zig Zag Wanderer - Call On Me - Dropout Boogie - I'm Glad - Electricity - Yellow Brick Road - Abba Zaba - Plastic Factory - Where There's Woman - Grown So Ugly - Autumn's Child. Finding a still sealed Buddah copy?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.
