Bongo Fury

Another offer came from Bono, singer with U2. He wrote to Van Vliet offering him a support slot on an upcoming tour and allegedly said that he would like to write with him. Far from being flattered by this invitation, Van Vliet disingenuously asked friends: "Who is this Bongo?"

Payola Scams: Love Makes Sweet Music

'I think that he was involved in some payola scams. I think he did that thing that they used to do, with Love Makes Sweet Music, of sending people round to buy it in hundreds from the shops, to get it into the charts. At that time, the business decided to do a clean sweep of chart fixing, and he was one of the people they chose to make an example of. And the decision made by, the BBC and people like that, was that any band that had been caught in one of these things, they wouldn't play their records on Radio 1 ever again. I think we then lost the chance to do singles, and we didn't even know why.'

Beefheart, the dictator

"He put me in this little bathroom closet that was the size of just the toilet - you couldn't move - and made me listen to this track called 'Red Cross Store' by Mississipi John Hurt over and over and over for three hours. I'd come out and say, 'I've got to eat, I'm starving,' and he said, 'No, you've got to hear it more.' He'd go, 'No, you've got to hear it more. You haven't heard it yet.'
