Captain Beyond, the first album by Captain Beyond, was released in 1972, and featured former members of Iron Butterfly, Deep Purple, Johnny Winter, and Rick Derringer. The album cover for the U.S. release included 3-D artwork (using lenticular printing). Even though there are 13 tracks, it really sounds as if there are only 5 with tracks 1-3, 6-8 & 9-13 segueing together. Tracks 4 & 5 are the only individual songs that don't segue into each other or from other songs. In which case "Dancing Madly Backwards" is 9:19, "Thousand Days of Yesterdays" is 9:01, and "I Can't Feel Nothin'" is around 9:13. 01 - Dancing Madly Backwards 02 - Armworth 03 - Myopic Void 04 - Mesmerization Eclipse 05 - Raging River of Fear 06 - Thousand Days of Yesterday (Intro) 07 - Frozen Over 08 - Thousand Days of Yesterdays (Time Since Come and Gone) 09 - I Cant Feel Nothin' (Part 1) 10 - As the Moon Speaks 11 - Astral Lady 12 - As the Moon Speaks (Return) 13 - I Can't Feel Nothin' (Part 2) LINK Captain Beyond - 1973 - Frozen Over Live
