I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

always appreciate your show, Bryce. by the way - there's a piece you've played that Ashley performs on as vocalist - he reads from a buddhist text, i think ... no his composition, tho. does that ring any bells? i'd love to find out what it is.

yeah! that's a piece by eliane radigue, "mila's journey inspired by a dream", based on Milarepa.

alternates between the tibetan, intoned by lama kunga rinpoche, and the translation, robert ashletized.

hey Bryce. never felt like i "got" Ashley's Perfect Lives and related spoken word oriented work until just now. pretty incredible once you get under the spell.

also does anyone remember... do i recall correctly Kurt interviewed RA and then did his "pop songs picked by avant garde musicians" segment and Ashley chose a new commercial pop country song that baffled everyone?

oh yeah! shit, that was a couple years ago.

I've been finding something very familiar about Robert Ashley's voice, and it finally occurred to me that I'd seen his collaboration with pianist 'Blue' Gene Tyranny on a video opera at the Kitchen in the early 80s. It took some googling, but I found the details here:
