Releases that have a connection to Jeff in some way but
are not straightforward recordings by him.
dEUS
Zea Intro Replica
(Belgian CD single Zea on Bang Records) 1993
This Belgian rock
band have made a number of references to Captain Beefheart in their
music. On this occasion they include a 30 second sample of Jeff's voice
from The Blimp(mousetrapreplica) off Trout
Mask Replica.
Merrell
Fankhauser
& The Haiku Band
Rabbit Is Gone (US CD Visitor from 2000AD)
2000
One of several songs on this album that were improvised in the studio.
On this particular track Merrell's son, Tim, finished the song with
the lyrics:-
"Jeff Cotton said the rabbit is gone"
This relates to an actual incident when Jeff was staying in Canoga
Park with Merrell and his then wife and a very young Tim who had a pet
rabbit.
