RIP: Captain Beefheart

The incredible Bonzer surfboard was invented by bothers Malcolm and Duncan Campbell to the avant garde soundtrack of Captain Beefheart. Don Van Vliet aka Captain Beefheart has passed away at age 69. LA Times obit.

Malcolm gave me a vinyl copy of Spotlight Kid as a gift years ago that I treasure.
