Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band, live at My Father's Place, Roslyn on 18th November 1978

After a period of relative inactivity, in 1978 Captain Beefheart re-emerged with a new Magic Band and a superb album, Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller). To promote it, they undertook a club tour of the US, to the delight of his devoted fans.

The wonderfully energetic show featured here was performed in a 200-seat supper club in Long Island on November 18th 1978 and broadcast on WLIR-FM and finds the band tackling material from the breadth of his career to date.

It's presented here with background notes and images.
