I did mean to say "You're the Man I Want..."

I must retract some of the statements I made in yesterdays posting.  I
had only listened to Giorno a little bit.  I made the attempt and
listened again last night and I am impressed.  He has a very sharp and
pointed wit that he uses well.  He also knows how to use (or knows
somebody who knows how to use) the technolgoy of his tape recorders
etc...  He can generate some extremely interesting sounds.  Actually,
looking at the album notes (see below) it is unclear exactly what a live
performance is like.  And how much of the tape is done in the studio.

Still not a must listen yet, and not an often listen yet, but he is a
serious listen.

There is an interesting note in a little corner of the Album -- "This

The New York State Council on the Arts, and Stanley and Elsie Grinstein"
(and your local public broadcasting station, and Exxon, and Beatrice
ARRRGGHHHhhhhh :-)  It good to see my tax dollars going to some benefit
instead of .

The address of Giorno Poetry Systems Records is:
	Giorno Poetry Systems Institute
	222 Bowery, New York, N.Y. 10012
	USA

The piece _For Electronic Dogs_ is the only one I missed in my last
posting.  It is very rhythmic and sharp with dogs (electronic??) barking
in the background.

Also note the reference to _Dark Dogs, American Dreams_, where did this
come from?  The narrator in this vignette is not LA, but an unidentified
male.  It is not "Paul from L.A." either.  Has anyone seen other
references to this album/piece/series/cookbook?
