Colonel Claypool’s Bucket of Bernie Brains features Les Claypool (bass/vocals), guitarist Buckethead (Guns ‘n Roses, Bill Laswell), drummer Brain (Primus, GnR), and original Parliament/Funkadelic member Bernie Worrell on keyboards. They have recorded a studio album which is out in September called 'The Big Eyeball In The Sky' and have just made some mp3s available at www.c2b3.com there is more info on how it came about here http://www.lesclaypool.com/ccbbb
 
Heard the samples a few weeks ago, it's pretty incredible stuff. Looking forward to the album (comes out next week I think).
 
Sweet :kickass: how cool is this!


The tour is now underway, featuring LES CLAYPOOL on bass and vocals, mysterious guitar superhero BUCKETHEAD, legendary keyboardist BERNIE WORRELL of Parliament/Funkadelic and Talking Heads fame, and the throbbing back beat of former Primus drummer BRAIN. With a full length 11 song original album now under their belts, this tour will be a new experience for all, which Claypool characterizes as "a traveling, oversized sock-puppet show spawned by the characters of a Tobe Hooper film and scored by Danny Elfman on bad acid."

We are happy to announce the launch of C2B3Live.com. C2B3 will be offering downloadable soundboard recordings of every single performance from this once in a lifetime tour. The web site will go live October 15th with all the east coast and mid west shows ready for download. The west coast shows will be available for download just days after each performance. All shows will be made available in both standard MP3 and CD quality FLAC audio formats.

Downloadable artwork for use in CD Jewel cases (designed by none other than Zoltron) will also be included with your purchases. Audio taping will be allowed at all of the shows as well. Stay tuned to for further details: www.c2b3live.com
 
Very cool! The CD is pretty awesome, particularly Elephant Ghost and Ignorance is Bliss.
 
"Virtuoso songwriter, frontman, bassist, and visual alchemist LES CLAYPOOL will release the DVD "5 Gallons Of Diesel" on his own Prawn Song Records.

The DVD contains 3-1/2 hours of live performances, videos and behind the scenes footage of Claypool's solo projects and collaborations featuring Oysterhead, Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, Sausage, Frog Brigade, Holy Mackerel and more.

The first ever video release of Claypool's solo career, "5 Gallons" follows on the heels of two wildly succesful Primus DVD's, the platinum 2003 release 'Animals Should Not Try To Act Like People' and 2004's gold 'Hallucino-Genetics Live.'"
