Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band - Mirror Man

180-gram vinyl limited anniversary edition w/ die-cut gatefold jacket

Mastered from the authorized Buddah Records tapes

Captain Beefheart will be forever known as one of the first originators of art rock, prog-rock and punk rock all rolled into one. With his Howlin' Wolfesque growl and blazing harmonica blues wailing, Don Van Vilet a.k.a. Captain Beefheart truly delivered the goods with his legendary Mirror Man album. Originally recorded between 1965 and 1967, The Captain and his Magic Band created some of the most masterful funk and progressive rock ever waxed with this stellar session.

Consisting of lengthy jam packed champions like his classic "Tarotplane" and "25th Century Quaker," Beefheart continues to rock further with the international title track hit "Mirror Man" and the funkified rocker "Kandy Korn."

Mastered from the authorized Buddah Records tapes by Joe Reagoso at Friday Music Studios and Capitol Mastering in Hollywood, these classic tracks truly reach sonic heights in the audiophile vinyl domain.

For a very short time, Friday Music is also including the super rare psychedelic die-cut gatefold LP cover artwork not seen in decades, to further enhance your listening pleasure, plus three poems on the back cover from the pen of Don Van Vilet.
