Product Description
CD Description
Producer Hal Willner, who in the past has produced off-beattribute albums to the likes of Thelonius Monk, Kurt Weill, and even Disney songwriters, collaborates again here, as on the earlier DEAD MAN'S RADIO, with Beat legend William S. Burroughs. Burroughs' dusty, sandpaper-dry readings from several of his works, including NOVA EXPRESS, are augmented with a combination of hip-hop tracks and found music, such as schmaltzy orchestral pop from the '50s, cheesy synthesizer versions of Bach airs, and Christmas carols.
The (intentional) effect is an aural equivalent of the cut-up writing style Burroughs pioneered. Pick hit: "Did I Ever Tell You About the Man That Taught His Asshole to Talk", a hallucinatory shaggy dog monologue that's one of the highlights of his most famous work, NAKED LUNCH.
