I didn't know the Captain, but his guitar player Bill Harclerode (Zoot Horn Rollo, I believe) lives here in Eugene and played on several projects I produced.

I play in a band, and for the life of me cannot memorize lyrics anymore..... but after all these years I can still remember half the songs on that album...."the Muffin Man", "Carolina Hardcore Ecstasy".....classics.

I hope his trip to the mothership was a smooth ride...
