what's all this booga booga music?
| 197? | lp-bootleg | ?? | wizardo wrmb 339 |
from "Rollin Red's Big Bad But Beautiful Book of Beefheart Bootlegs -
Volume #2" (Apocalypse) / 1995 :
"197? single bootleg LP What's All This Booga Booga Music? on Wizardo
(Rekords) WRMB 339.
300 series! (All rights paid!) Made in Holland! This is almost certainly the
rarest & earliest vinyl bootleg to feature the spring of 1973!
This is the original pressing tesplendent on red splatter vinyl and is a joy to
hold, let alone to play! The cover is just plain white card... (Ah... when
bootlegs were bootlegs!!) with the then customary inserted photo / information
sheet (that is a mystery in itself) A collector's dream and I would guess only a
handful around anywhere near mint condition!!!
Why the cover sheet should give details of an apparent July 16th concert 1975 at
the Roxy, LA, is one of those mysteries that surround Beefheart & bootlegs!?
At the very start of side 1 Don announces the band, which is the '73 Zoot Horn /
Rockette line-up also featuring Alex St.Clair & Ed marimba but certainly not
the 1975 tour line up that came over for Knebworth & did in fact play The
Roxy and a few other West Coast dates on or around July 16th 1975. (According to
someone who wrote to say they attended the gig8??).
But hey, who cares...? As it features edited highlights to some amazing seldom
performed material.
NB Sighting of these are few and far between. Expect to be asked anything from
£100 to £200 for a mint copy. (also comes in black vinyl - blue
insert!)."
