Beefheart Box Set Planned
Critically acclaimed experimentalist Captain Beefheart will be
the subject of a four-CD box set of unreleased material due in stores
this November from Revenant Records. Among the work collected on
the set
will be the original instrumental recordings for Beefheart's 1969
masterpiece, Trout Mask Replica, and the complete, original
album
known as Bat Chain Puller (some of which was later released in
altered form as Shiny Beast in 1978). The set will also include
one disc of a 1968 live performance on the beach at Cannes, France,
plus
enhanced-CD video footage of that set.
