Jack Kerouac: Readings By Jack Kerouac On The Beat Generation LP (Verve By Request Series)

Artist: 
Jack Kerouac
$29.99

Verve, 1960

In his third and final album, recorded ahead of the publication of his novel, Doctor Sax, Kerouac uses his voice as an instrument, weaving his words inside of patterns and percussive accents the way a horn player solos over the changes of a well-known standard. The set is presented with an immense focus and energy to keep the listener engaged for a full 40 minutes. The Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
