I was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band.
I told him, “Don’t do it that way. You’ll never make a dime.”
I was there.

Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band - Dachau Blues

This whole project filed in the ever bulky folder, “Ideas I Wish I’d Had.” It’s amazing how well “Losing My Edge,” which was a real punch in the face in 2002 but also treaded lightly around the gimmick end of the field, has held up.
