Don't blame them for Uncle Alan's behavior, I should say.

 

[Merseyzig]

No, despite trying I never got into Beefhart. Often cited as "inspiration" for a lot of acts I do like. Not terrible, like, just unimpressed.

In order to appreciate CB, you have to listen to the old blues artist Howlin' Wolf.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

He is to music what Vera Chytilova was to movies.

 

[Blues Harp]

He is to music what Vera Chytilova was to movies.

He had more musical and artistic talent than all of take that combined...not hard I know but...some of his albums are weird but the guy had his roots in the blues and was backed by some fine musicians...listen to the Spotlight Kid and Clear Spot.....brilliant!
