Reviews

fink Apr 23, 2003
Just listened to my first ever captain beefheart cover and very enjoyable it was to.I was rewarded this album after
donating 1 Euro to a charity shop on Capel street and I must say it was money well spent.The only trouble is is is that i've no idea who this mammal is is is and its after taking me an hour and an half to get this far on my first ever internet search. So thats 2 firsts for this evening , actually it is is is 3 cos this is is is my first ever record review Album rating: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! BUY IT TODAY !!!! ......if you can find a copie that is.OKAY Im of to E-BAY. tropical hot dog day day!
