New York 1982

Released

Key archival find from sound poet Charlie Morrow’s closet. A chunk of the action here comes from the horns: Carol E. Tuynman, Patricia Burgess, and Michael Snow (yes, that Michael Snow). Morrow and fellow mouth maniac Steve McCaffery make the noises (but less often than the title suggests), and Derek does Derek. A few hectic live recordings and then an amazing eleven-minute studio date at the Record Plant full of silences and detail—huge addition to the Bailey stack.
