Mallard is the
eponymous debut by the group
Mallard, who formed after tensions between them and
Captain Beefheart exploded, causing them to leave his band (though the album's last track is a Beefheart composition). It was reissued as a CD with the band's other album, In a Different Climate, added on.
Mallard got their start with the help of
Jethro Tull's
Ian Anderson: he lent them his mobile studio for their work (he is thanked in the
liner notes). Neither album achieved any sort of commercial success.
