hi Trevor,
I think that Leona completely missed the point as the things on the Atlantic
Monthly site are on the site. I took it that you were asking about CDs?
there's a very good CD of readings from the Ear Inn called 'Live At The Ear'
(surprise surprise:)) and I'm sure you could get one through bridge Street
Books. Produced by one 'Richard Dillon'!! It features tracks recorded in
that infamous bar by Howe (Susan), Silliman, Scalapino Greenwald, Waldrop,
Davies, Watten, Hunt, Andrews, Weiner, McCaffery, Lauterback and Bernstein
so you get the picture. Good recordings with the 'live' ambiance. Catalogue
number is 885905-36-X
Jackson MacLow has a fine colection 'Open Secrets' that's put out the
Experimental Intermedia Foundation (XI 110)
57 Productions do a range of 'spoken works' by poets such as Benjamin
Zephaniah, Jean 'Binta' Breeze, Merle Collins and suchlike. Again high
quality recordings
I'd highly recommend Tom Leonard's 'Nora's Place' from Soundhouse
Publications/AK Press (SOHO 003CD : AKA 006CD) features the incomparable 'A
Priest Came On At Merkland Street'
there's a series from Minneapolis called 'Voys' edited by Erik Belgum that
deals with readings such as Raymond Federman's 'The Voice In The Closet'
(Voys P.O. Box 580547 MPLS, MN 55458-0547, USA)
there's the 'Carnivocal' collection of Canadian sound poetry from Red Deer
Press (ISBN 0-88995-210-80 featuring the usual suspects such as McCaffery,
bissett, gerry shikatani, Dutton, Bok, bp nicol . . .
there was a cassette series that might still be found from S Press out of
Germany who did things such as Jerry Rothenberg "Horse Songs' (S Press,
Michael Kohler Zleblandstrasse 10, D-80799 Munchen) that one is ISBN
3-922698-31-X
Ginsberg's 'The Lion For Real' is a terrific collection on Antilles (ANCD
8750)
of course there's a slew of Burroughs, perhaps my favourites being
'Vaudeville Voices' (Grey Matter : GM02CD) and 'Dead City Radio' (Island :
422-846-264-2)
Hazel Smith has a CD 'Poet Without Language' (RF -005 from Rufus Records in
Australia)
just what's close at hand . . . many others hope this helps some
love and love
