Actually Beefheart's Ahht may be a bit too complex and...tragic for 'Merican consumers, H. They might get Zappa's comedy or porn (tho not his serious stuff) but CB's generally too weird for Consumerland (tho his death probably good for business). Like the usual C & L's ho's and Joan Rivers' wannabes, and rabblerousers: they'll never get Don VV's vision, man--sort of like they never read Pynchon, or beat writers, or much of anything.
