An Entity of Type: album, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Spotlight Kid is the sixth studio album by Captain Beefheart. Released in 1972, it is the only album credited solely to Captain Beefheart (Don Van Vliet) rather than Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band, although every member is featured, and its material is considered part of the band's repertoire. Often cited as one of the most accessible of Beefheart's albums, it is solidly founded in the blues but also uses instruments such as marimba and jingle bells that are not typical of that genre. The incarnation of the Magic Band on this album was Bill Harkleroad and Elliot Ingber, guitars; Mark Boston, bass; John French, drums; and Art Tripp, marimba. Session drummer Rhys Clark substituted for French on one track, "Glider".

  • The Spotlight Kid è il sesto album di Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band e venne pubblicato nel 1972. Spesso ricordato come il più commerciale dei dischi di Beefheart, il prodotto è fondato sul blues, ma introduce alcuni strumenti "esotici" come la marimba. Pur non arrivando in posizioni relativamente alte come quelle dei due dischi precedenti nelle classifiche del Regno Unito, The Spotlight Kid fu il primo album di Captain Beefheart ad apparire nella Top 200 di Billboard. Raggiunse, infatti, il centotrentunesimo posto, ovvero la posizione più elevata mai raggiunta da un disco di Don Van Vliet negli Stati Uniti. Attualmente, il disco è disponibile solo in un cofanetto contenente anche il suo successore, Clear Spot. Per comprare i due album separatamente, bisogna necessariamente acquistare le versioni in vinile. (it)
  • The Spotlight Kid är det sjätte studioalbumet av Captain Beefheart och The Magic Band som lanserades 1972 på Reprise Records. Skivan är tydligt bluesinspirerad och betydligt lugnare än Captain Beefhearts tidigare skivor. Många av låtarna innehåller marimbaspel. På albumomslagets baksida fanns några av Captain Beefhearts målningar. Kommersiellt sett blev skivan ingen större framgång i USA (#131 på Billboard 200), men gick bättre i Storbritannien (UK Albums Chart #44). (sv)
