About this poster
"The central image on this "Poster From The Past" is a stunning photo of the man Don Van Vliet (Jan.15, 1941 – Dec.17, 2010) best known by the stage name "Captain Beefheart". His musical work was conducted with a rotating ensemble of musicians called the Magic Band, which was around from 1964 to 1982 with whom he recorded 13 studio albums. Most of which were pretty far out there!
It was 42 years ago on this day back in 1978 that the Captain along with the Magic Band began three nights of shows and entertainment that kept the audience wide eyed and eared. He ALWAYS put on a great show....
The Boarding House was a music and comedy nightclub fixture here in our City by the Bay, opened by David Allen in 1971 and lasted about 10 years or so. Robin Williams launched his career there and Steve Martin's first three albums there. The club was also host to a multitude of musical acts over the years, such as Dolly Parton, Patti Smith, Neil Young, Bette Midler, Billy Joel, Bob Marley, Mason Williams, The Tubes, Talking Heads, Old and in the Way, Randy Newman, Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, Jim Croce, Harry Chapin, Tom Waits, and a host of others to many to list. It was fun while it lasted! I enjoyed Many a show there. (Y) Poster art by James McCaffry ARS/NOVA GRAPHICS." - Professor Poster
