EXCELLENT COMPANION PIECE TO THE ALBUM! Dos Passos This is a great exploration of TMR. Although I have a few quibbles with Mr. Courrier on various points, his book is a mini-epic that can stand proudly alongside Beefheart and the Magic Band's tour de force.Courrier creates a nice balance between the geek minutiae of the record and the larger picture (pop music history, Zappa's influence, etc). The writer knew he had a challenge ahead of him and he tackles it with honesty and modesty. No hipster posturing at all.very refreshing.This is easily the best 33 1/3 book I've read so . "Close to Perfect" according to Theodore Allavan. A great, great read for fans of Beefheart and TROUT MASK. Just a few errors that bothered me:1) Continues the misinformation that CHINA PIG was recorded on cassette. As is clear from the GROW FINS set, CHINA PIG was recorded on the same quarter-inch tape that Dick Kunk was using to record the original backing tracks that came to be known as the "rehearsal tape." This tape was either copied to cassette and recorded open-mic for the Trout album (very likely, as you can hear laughter WAY in the background as the song plays) or w. Good overview R. Hiteshew Good commentary on TMR. With the lack of material about CB out there, anything is refreshing. Lots of interviews with MB members, some good funny insights and comments, not too much overintellectualising, a quick read. A good choice for Beefheart fans

Mention in Record Collector

In the spring of 1969, the inauspicious release of Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band's Trout Mask Replica, a double-album featuring 28 stream-of-consciousness songs filled with abstract rhythms and guttural bellows, dramatically altered the pop landscape.Yet even if the album did cast its radical vision over the future of music, much of the record's artistic strength is actually drawn from the past. Trout Mask Replica is a hybrid of poetic declarations inspired by both Walt Whitman and the beat poets, the field hollers of the Delta Blues, the urban blues of Howlin' Wolf, the gospel blues of Blind Willie Johnson, and the free jazz of Ornette Coleman. This book illustrates how Trout Mask Replica was not so much an arcane specimen of the avant-garde, but rather a defiantly original declaration of the American imagination.. This book examines how Beefheart's incomparable opus, an album that divided (rather than) united a pop audience, is informed by a variety of diverse sources
