It has been a year and a half since Cooper packed up her VW van in Portland, OR and made the quest to Nashville, TN. Cooper cut her performance teeth as a burlesque singer in Portland and jumped at the chance to play a show at this beautiful venue with a sordid past in the City of Roses. The Historic Star Theater now hosts live concerts, variety shows, and of course burlesque. The old neon marquee was rebuilt and the interior fully restored. In 2011, 100 years after erection, the building was remodeled to look as it did in its heyday. Ultimately the building was shut down and left empty after being busted for housing a ''modern day speakeasy''.
Known for many years as a house of ill-repute it hosted burlesque in the 40s (regularly featuring such legendary dancers as Tempest Storm, Candy Renee and Arabella Andre), adult films in the 60s, and an all nude revue in the 70s and 80s. Built in 1911, the theater has a rich and seedy past. This particular house happens to be the historical Star Theater in downtown Portland Oregon. Hot new artist, Cooper, and her twelve piece soul band have a reputation for rocking the house.

Peel explained it wasn’t a groovy name but simply a Dance Club run by Frank Freeman. With Beefheart coming from a country where band names like Quicksilver Messenger Service and Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen were de rigeur, when Peel told Captain Beefheart he was driving him to a concert venue in Kidderminster called Frank Freeman’s Dance Club, Beefheart said “What a groovy name” thinking it was in the same hippy west coast vibe as the aforementioned bands. Pride of place on the front cover of the LP goes to one of the recently discovered 1968 screen printed posters for the Frank Freeman’s Beefheart show. Fortunately legendary DJ John Peel brought his tape recorder and recorded four brilliant numbers from the show which appear on this album along with four other tracks from that era. One of the highlights of Captain Beefheart’s 1968 tour of the UKwas the concert at Frank Freeman’s Dance Club in Kidderminster.
