"Captain Fantasy" is a psychedelic glam/hard rock song in the key of C# major.
The lead vocals are sung by Gene Ween.
"Captain Fantasy" appears on the Bilboa demo tape.
Live Performances[edit | edit source]
"Captain Fantasy" was performed live as early as December of 1990, nine months before the release of The Pod. Ever since, it has remained a commonly played song during every era of live Ween (although notably omitted from the 1996 country tour). A 12/9/1992 recording from the Pure Guava tour can be heard on the At the Cat's Cradle album; a much later 7/8/2000 recording from the White Pepper tour is on Live at Stubb's.
In addition, Gene Ween played it several times at solo acoustic shows in 2011.[1]
