Members bluesnapper Posted December 18, 2010 Members Share Posted December 18, 2010 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-12024652 The great man has moved on. I love his music, from the raspy Howlin' Wolf covers through the weird and experimental to this funky groove - with Winged Eel Fingerling on guitar. Man I wish I had that much hair...

Members ExiledCrow Posted December 18, 2010 Members Share Posted December 18, 2010 Well, whether you liked him or not, he always had his OWN thing going on and that's why he was cool. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fretmonster Posted December 18, 2010 Members Share Posted December 18, 2010 Glad he came along in my time. Time to move along and escape the chains of MS. RIP Captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JRicoC Posted December 18, 2010 Members Share Posted December 18, 2010 I didn't even get into Beefheart until the mid '90s when Joan Osborne sampled the opening riff from Clear Spot for Right Hand Man. These days I don't go a day without at least one Beefheart song ... [video=youtube;RqYfmfEqi20] It's hard to choose, but this is probably my fave ...
