"The Legendary A&M Sessions" is an extended play featuring five songs by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band, recorded early in their career for their original record label A&M Records. The EP was released by the company in 1984 after Captain Beefheart, whose real name is Don van Vliet, had gone into retirement.
Four of the EP's five tracks had previously been released on two singles in 1966, the first, "Diddy Wah Diddy"—a much reworked cover of a Blind Blake blues tune that had also been recorded by Bo Diddley—being paired with "Who Do You Think You're Fooling?", and the second comprising "Moonchild" and "Frying Pan". The fifth tune featured here, "Here I Am I Always Am", was apparently a rejected B-side which had remained unreleased until the EP's appearance in 1984.[Barnes, p. 357] ]
