Hello, there, kids, it's your old friend Captain Beefheart! You know, me, the magic man, invisible, and all that jazz, ha! Flies through time and space, dimension warp, all that rhythm... Well, anyway, uh... I'm here tonight to tell you that we have a heck-of-a-little teen-age opera for you... You're really gonna dig it, mmmh, yeah, it's really groovy!
