2’49” is the moment when you realize that you either love or hate Captain Beefheart...

Don Van Vliet was unreal, rest in peace Don.
there is so much, but a good cross section might be.

Theres Winston Churchill dressed in drag, he used to be a british flag, plastic bag what a drag,

The frog was a prince, the prince was a brick, the brick was an egg,
the egg was a bird.
(Fly away you sweet little thing, they're hard on your tail)
Hadn't you heard?
(They're going to change you into a human being!)
Yes, we're happy as fish and gorgeous as geese,
and wonderfully clean in the morning.


Yup, they don’t write them like that anymore.
And the music.......

thanks for mentioning Achilles last stand and And You And I, i play them so much i've taken them for granted,
Zep's live versions of No Quarter have run up to 1/2 hr and are great, and honorable mention for "Carouselambra"
Yes's Close to the Edge or Awaken as well.

Puts tin hat on
I prefer the Phil Collins Seconds Out version
There, I've said it.

Seconds out is brilliant, Collins add something with his vocals, the first couple of post gabriel albums also very good.
