Farewell Aldebaran is a 1969 album by the American musicians Judy Henske and Jerry Yester. Originally released on Frank Zappa's Straight record label, it contains an eclectic mix of songs in a wide variety of styles and is also notable for its early use of synthesisers. AllMusic describes the album as "a fusion of folk music, psychedelia, and arty pop, though that only scrapes the surface of the LP's stylistic complexity."[2] Although the album got some good reviews it failed to sell in large quantities, purchasers possibly confused by its eclecticism.[3]
