The Spotlight Kid
 The Spotlight Kid is the sixth album by Captain Beefheart (Don Van Vliet) and the Magic Band originally released in 1972. It is the only album formally credited solely to Captain Beefheart. Often cited as one of the most accessible of Beefheart's albums it is solidly founded in the blues but also uses instruments such as marimba and jingle bells that are not typical of that genre.
