Mike Watt interviewing Jon Langford for three hours puts me in my punkrock fanboy heaven. About 1:36 in, Langford mentions a Captain Beefheart gig in Manchester in 1980, all the Mekons (who were then, briefly, Beefhearts labelmates) sitting in one row while the Fall were in the next row. Which reminds Watt that Tony Maimone once told him about a 1974 or 1975 Beefheart show in Canton attended by Devo, Chrissie Hynde, and Pere Ubu (who later enlisted Beefhearts keyboard player Eric Drew Feldman). Maimone engineered Watts latest record, and was in Langfords band the Killer Shrews with ... Beefheart guitarist Gary Lucas. My point is, thank God for Captain Beefheart.
