Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band‘s 3rd studio album was released on 16 June 1969.
In 1968, Beefheart found himself without a label, and a completed album waiting to be released (the sessions would not be released until 1971′s Mirror Man), when Don Van Vliet’s (Beefheart) high school friend, Frank Zappa offered him complete artistic freedom to release an album on Zappa’s Straight label (Trout Mask Replica was the second album on Straight, following Alice Cooper’s Pretties for You released in May 1969).
Van Vliet prepared for the recording session by having the band all live in the same house, where band members later confirmed that they were not allowed to leave, frequently abused, verbally and physically, rationed food (being fed soybeans for a month), and subjected to grueling rehearsal sessions that lasted 14 hours.
The resulting album is one of the most original, confounding, alienating, and engrossing albums ever released. “Then and now, it stands outside time, trends, fads, hypes, the rise and fall of whole genres eclectic as walking Christmas trees, constituting a genre unto itself: truly, a musical Monolith if ever there was one,” Lester Bangs wrote.
It was a commercial disaster in the US, but peaked (for a week) at #21 in the UK.
Psycho was first shown at 2 theatres in New York City on Sunday 16 June 1960.
Paramount had initially rejected Hitchcock’s idea for the film, even after Hitchcock offered to shoot it on a small budget and waive his fee. So, Hitchcock financed the film himself and produced the film for a little more than $800,000.
Hitchcock also reportedly bought up most of the available copies Robert Bloch’s novel (on which the film is based) in order to keep his audience surprised. He also refused any screenings for the press and forbade the film’s stars from doing interviews before it was released.
Despite mixed reviews, Psycho was an commercial success (it has been cited as “the most profitable black-and-white sound film ever made“ and earned Hitchcock more than $15 million - $120 million in today’s value).
32-year-old Andrew Sarris, in his first review for The Village Voice, wrote: “Psycho should be seen at least three times by any discerning film-goer, the first time for the sheer terror of the experience, and on this occasion I fully agree with Hitchcock that only a congenital spoilsport would reveal the plot; the second time for the macabre comedy inherent in the conception of the film; and the third for all the hidden meanings and symbols lurking beneath the surface of the first American movie since Touch of Evil to stand in the same creative rank as the great European films.”
