FYI, I highly recommend this... gloriously uncompressed "bootleg" of bat chain puller (a completely different session/mix than the released album). soothing analog tape hiss and percussion that actually sounds like it's supposed to [[insert rant about the psychologically and neurologically fraudulent concept of "perceptual masking" here]].

Apes-ma PERSONEL: DON VAN VLIET - vocals/tenor sax/soprano sax/bass clarinet DENNY WALLEY - guitar/slide guitar JEFF MORIS TEPPER - guitar/slide guitar JOHN THOMAS - keyboards JOHN FRENCH - drums/percussion/guitar QUALITY: A+ Stereo Studio Recording NOTES: This album was recorded in early 1976 but never released. This particular dub was made from an ANA(1) copy given to a record company employee by Beefheart himself. This same tape has been bootlegged on CDR with excessive noise reduction, but this fresh new transfer is completely free of NR. Don't be fooled by the European bootleg "Dust Sucker" which comes from a very poor quality tape, and not the "Captain's original tapes" as the liner notes claim. This copy is the real deal! LINEAGE: ANA(2) -> CDR -> WAV -> FLAC TRANSFERED AND MASTERED BY JWB.
