Format: MP3
This is a classic home recording of a desperate (and very drunk) Bukowski, complete with cars zooming off in the background and some interesting asides, both to himself and the German who is recording him. A couple of the poems are mislabeled. For instance, “Bukowski Still at it” is really “The curtains are waving and people walk through the afternoon here and in Paris and in New York City and in Mexico”. Plus, an extremely drunken version of “No Lady Godiva” follows “True Story” (I think he forgot to read the title).
