4 stars Fine Collection
of interviews with former Magic Band members and clips of the Captain and band playing, from promotional videos and tv appearances. It's not a concert video nor is it a comprehensive biography.

It is mostly interviews of band members. I saw the Captain twice and this film will do nothing for you.

3 stars Not bad
Except for the pretentious Brit critics, this has some good spots. John French always has something new to share, and other band members I've not seen interviewed before are here as well. Not half as good as the John Peel TV documentary (which still isn't available commercially), but worth a look. Too bad they missed Alex before he died! And come on, Jeff Cotton- give an interview!

Captain Beefheart - Under Review film
DVD $7.15  4 stars
After quitting the music industry in 1982, Captain Beefheart reverted back to his original moniker, Don Van Vliet, and quietly established himself as a contemporary painter. Withdrawing from the public domain and preferring to let his artwork do the talking, little was heard from the reclusive genius until Anton Corbjin shot the 13 minute short film SOME YO YO STUFF in 1993. Presented here, Corbjin's film draws on the thoughts and feeling of Don himself, alongside two questions posed by director David Lynch. Sue Vliet -- Don's mother -- ...

DVD $12.39  4.3 stars Top 500
Starting in 1974 and continuing for nearly a decade, Frank Zappa's annual Halloween concerts were a New York City institution. When the avant-rocker scored a Top 40 hit with "Valley Girl" in 1982, he skipped that year's Halloween performance and instead chose to premiere a 90-minute documentary called FRANK ZAPPA'S DUB ROOM at New York's Ritz Theater. Produced, directed, written, conducted, composed, arranged, and performed by Zappa, the documentary was comprised ...

Captain Beefheart - Under Review DVD
CD $16.55  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
When Frank Zappa died in 1993, he had spent much of his remaining time and energy completing a number of projects before the end finally came. Why the majority of them are still unreleased as of late 2006 is anybody's guess, but perhaps the long awaited release of Trance-Fusion is a good sign. Trance-Fusion is another collection of guitar solos, forming something of a trilogy with the Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar set and Guitar. As FZ fans know, Frank had his favorite vehicles for soloing and careful listening to the albums as a group gives you a good idea which songs these are. "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar," "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar Some More," "The Return of the Son of Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar" (Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar), "Systems of Edges" (Guitar), and now "A Cold Dark Matter" are all excerpted from the solo section of "Inca Roads." "Variations on the Carlos Santana Secret Chord Progression," "That Ol' G Minor Thing Again," and now "Scratch ...

THE BIG BOUNCE (1969): Before Tom Clancy made the name Jack Ryan synonymous with Cold War heroics, Ryan O'Neal broke into the movies by portraying a decidedly different Jack Ryan in this lurid drama. O'Neal's Ryan is picking cucumbers when he picks a fight with a Mexican immigrant coworker (Victor Paul). The brutal beating sends Ryan to look for work elsewhere and he lands in roadside motel. Trouble continues to follow the ex-con as both a secretary with a seedy reckless streak (Leigh Taylor-Young) and a troubled, sexy transient (Lee Grant) make ...

DVD $12.95  3 stars
In a selfless act of buddy love, motor-mouthed WEDDING CRASHERS star Vince Vaughn brings four rising comedy stars on a tour of 30 U.S. cities in 30 days, all captured in this documentary/stand-up comedy film. The comics that brave this breakneck-pace journey are Ahmed Ahmed, Bret Ernst, Sebastian Maniscalo, and John Caparulo. Patterned after the old Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, Vaughn's calvalcade of merriment is raunchy and fraternity party-ready, but also surprisingly sweet-natured. Interspersed with Vaughn's skits and the stand-up footage is lots of juicy hand-held tour documentary material: ...
