Holy shit, amazing.

"If something is boring after two minutes, try it for four. If still boring, then eight. Then sixteen. Then thirty-two. Eventually one discovers that it is not boring at all."

John Cage

Jarvis Cocker reading Richard Brautigan (MP3).

"[Patti] Smith was the president of a fan club that had just one member but a hundred idols: Rimbaud, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Keith Richards, Jackson Pollock, Isabelle Eberhardt, Brian Jones, Georgia O’Keeffe, William Burroughs, Renée Falconetti (Joan of Arc in Carl Theodor Dreyer’s 1928 movie), not to mention Johnny Carson. She evoked these personalities, and more, in her songs and poems and broadsides and chapbooks, in her stage patter, in interviews, and she was not at all coy about enumerating her specific debts to them. She made a point, that is, of publicly enacting a process that most artists keep to themselves. This was doubly brave of her, since as a woman at that time declaring herself to be something more than a singer and decorative stage presence she faced a certain amount of derision anyway."

Journey In Satchindananda (by ItinerateWolfMop) “Alice Coltrane’s Journey In Satchindananda, from the album of the same name released in 1970. The title of the song is a dedication to Miss Coltrane’s yogic teacher Swami Satchindananda, the master of Integral Yoga.”

Bought this track on Amazon and listened to it 27 times this afternoon.
