Safe As Milk, Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band, 1967

This album wouldn't be that interesting if it wasn't by Captain Beefheart. It's a blues record with competent songwriting and playing. Until this project, I thought Trout Mask Replica (1969) was Cap’s first album. Actually it was his third, this one was first. Most interesting song is "Zig Zag Wanderer," which evokes The Fall and also departs from the traditional blues structure.
