David Minnick has been laboring away for years creating a cappella covers of the songs on Captain Beefheart's seminal 1969 double album Trout Mask Replica. Recently he released a CD with covers of all 28 songs. I am doing this reaction on Labor Day in honor of the many years labor of love that he has put into this fantastic project!

This song is one of the many that he has published full videos of. Here is a link to the video:

In this reaction, I also include an isolated track of the Captain's vocal. These isolated tracks are created by Ant 2 Man Bee. Here is a link to his channel where he has many other Beefheart songs both isolated and digitally
re-mastered.
