All music composed and performed by Kramer - ** except: “To One in Paradise” Music by Joan Wasser, Kramer, & “To My Mother” Music by Thurston Moore & Kramer. 13 Artists reading 13 poems by EDGAR ALLAN POE In Loving Memory - HAL WILLNER

This LP of Edgar Allan Poe’s timeless poetry was created in reverent tribute to Kramer's great friend and fellow traveller on the musical roads least taken, Hal Willner (1956 - 2020). As a fitting coda, the LP closes with an archival recording of Allen Ginsberg vividly reciting “The Bells”. The unaccompanied reading from June 1981 is an excerpt from his ‘Expansive Poetics’ study course at The Naropa School of Disembodied Poets - Bolder, CO."
