Walt, first of all, I haven't listened to the Giffoni link you sent yet... I guess I should, but question? Wasn't Giffoni a hard core noise artist? ...
I have a trilogy of paperbacks of the original Dangerous Visions and then a double paperback volume of Again Dangerous Visions, both sets have stayed...
I need to poke around the Giffoni stuff a bit more...I listened to Dream Walker and it didn't quite rope me in, but it could've totally been my mood...
