What's the one Beefheart song that best shows his vocal range?
 

I'm giving this comp. to a friend of amazing singers. I can't think of just one song...I'll probably include two or three though.

yes yes atari

^ ditto.

doo-wah-ditty is pretty dynamic. Dan Van Vliet's voice is so soothing..so melodic...what a crooner !!

sugar n spikes is pretty good.

on your mix you should put some soft machine on there, robert wyatt is an amazing singer.

Some of the acapella stuff off troutmask might do, if I was picking a vocal showcase pure & simple I'd probably pick Well.
