Electricity 1967-1968 (CD)
Electricity 1967-1968 is a collection of very rare recordings of the Captain. The tracks were recorded live at MIDEM Pop Festival, Cannes Beach, France, live at Frank Freeman's Dance Studio, Kidderminster, UK and Allegro Sound Studios, Los Angeles, CA. Track one, "Electricity" (1968 Live) Van Vliet's adaptation of the Howlin'; Wolf vocal-construction device is in full frontal view, as is the evolving Magic Band rhythmic concept and French/Drumbo's incredibly responsive manifestation thereof as he shadows Van Vliet's singing; an outstanding version of one of the most innovative songs in the proto history of avant-rock.
