Captain Beyond surpassed everything Rod Evans had done with Deep Purple, too bad one had to be the victor, because this band was historical!!!

I love all 3 "classic" albums. But their best one (imo) is OOP. Dawn Explosion is completely killer.

Captain Beyond should have been huge.

I love Dawn Explosion, although Rod was gone by then. Sufficiently Breathless is ok, but proggier and more mellow. The S/t is a Hall of Famer.

Great underrated band, i have had that footage posted here on VHS for over 20 years. A couple of years a friend put it onto DVD for me and i uploaded onto Youtube. It then got stolen a bunch of times and got posted by various other people. I check the site a while back and the vids have been viewed over 120,000 times so they must a strong underground following these days. The first s/t album is timeless.

A couple of things jump out at me from watching these clips...
the playing is phenomenal though in regards to the first clip...LESS COWBELL PLEASE lol... sometimes singers should just sing though when Edwin was in I Mother Earth he pulled off the percussion super.
Also I think these guys had a pretty big influence on Ty Tabor and Jerry Gaskill from King's X

and finally... it is all so great but sometimes there are just GREAT parts that need to be explored. Some of those sections could easily be whole songs. Smoking stuff!
