Topic | The Frank Zappa Appreciation Topic! Part 10.2 |
Mr Lasastryke 06/04/19 12:26:10 PM #70: | It has been assumed for a long time that the repeated guitar riff in the original, Captain Beefheart version of "The Torture Never Stops" (as can be heard on YCDTOSA Vol. 4) was taken from "Smokestack Lightning" by Howlin' Wolf, but I just saw someone suggest that it actually comes from this song. Eh, maybe but I still think "Smokestack Lightning" is more probable, given that both Frank and Beefheart loved Howlin' Wolf. Seems more likely to me that this band also copied the "Smokestack Lightning" guitar riff for this song (several people in the comments assume this as well). --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta ...
