I have to mention Commisioner of Sewers and Nova Express…as greats of WSB multimedia…but also has anyone else seen the Saturday Night Live (1971 CBS I think) footage of WSB doing “K-9 Was In Touch With The Alien Mind Screens” reading, I have the telesync footage among other footage checking with Kieth and hopefully anyone else involved before I post this amazing WSB VHS tape I inherited from a now deceased MIT Cryptographer
I will post here with links to what I have when I clear the footage with the estate, thanks WSB fans

Your version of The Masque Of The Red Death is a better quality than the copy I bought from an online music supplier (can I mention Emusic here?).

Quite the treasure trove of Burroughs goodies you have here. I’ll be back.

I was in rehab for six months following years of heroin addiction. I had never found a “cure” as burroughs called it. Then I was working in the warehouse sorting through donated items(I was at the salvation army) when I came across a book called “Junky” I remembered burroughs from the movie drugstore cowboy so I gave It a read.I have never read Or seen or heard some one take all the feelings of of my heart and put them on paper. I can definatley say that The thoughts and feeling expressed in that book are more acurate and heart felt to me than eanything out there.
