Heh heh...shades of me paying $40 for an ebay video of "Koyaanisqatsi", only to see it re-released on DVD (and retailing for ten bucks!) less than a year later...

"Heh heh...shades of me paying $40...."
A mere $40? A mere bagatelle, a drop in the ocean. Iirc it cost me nearly $20 in P&P [sobs].

Of course my expectations weren't particularly high - The Captain does seem to have been the subject / source of more than his fair share of pointless compliations and dodgy merchandise in recent months and Chrome Dreams previous contribution (a dodgy-sounding CD of an old interview) certainly didn't lead me to expect much - but just for a change this really is worth acquiring for all good little Beefheart obsessives.

I've also been hearing very good things about this:

Suffice it to say however that Ozit's latest contribution "The Captain's Last Live Concert Plus" is inevitably of the same piss-poor quality as most of the other Beefheart material they've released, and is probably best avoided.

Instrumental-only tracks from the sessions, sans the Beef. Magic Band indeed.

An interesting Syd Barrett one there too.

Very nice. I once learned to play Flavor Bud Living, but One Red Rose.. is a whole other level.

so it looks like this was finally released on CD... in 2015
