captain beefheart & his magic band - I'm gonna booglarize you, baby (live 1972) - processed 'stereo'

Edit for headphones. Don van Vliet & his Magic Band (including "The Mothers Of Invention" drummer Arthur Tripp and bass player Roy Estrada (at the right) on German tv in 1972. mojo4music dot com says: On April 12, 1972, the band entered Radio Bremen’s Funkhaus to film a performance for German TV show "Beat-Club". In this stunningly high-quality upload of one of the the songs recorded that day we witness the group in their full Spotlight Kid/Clear Spot-era glory with the magnificent trio of Zoot Horn Rollo (Bill Harkleroad), Rockette Morton (Mark Boston) and Winged Eel Fingerling (Elliot Ingber) laying freak-blues guitar over Art Tripp and Roy Estrada’s hypnotic backing.

Here's Bill Harkleroad with a few memories:

“I’m Gonna Booglarize You got played an awful lot and was definitely part of our live show. Like Click Clack and Alice In Blunderland, Booglarize You was a staple part of the set on three basic tours – 1971, 1972 and 1973. I can specifically remember the band performing it on a German TV show called Beat Club. Like all TV shows at that time, they weren’t ready for loudly performed music. Our type of music was designed to be played loud, it didn’t have to be earsplitting, but it had to be played with a certain amount of volume just to push enough air to feel the excitement level of it — because we did have energy, no question about it!

I remember how difficult it was, beating the crap out of the instrument and jumping around, when you could hear people whispering over the low volume. ... Back then live TV shows were only one step better than lip-synching. It always felt funny playing to 30-odd people who were clapping politely while the TV producer was trying to make it look like a crowd 500. It was a very sterile environment and of course the Magic Band came over as being totally ‘over-the-top’ with our look - I remember stumbling around on my high heeled green shoes."
