Life Changing,
By Jason Schwartz "fspace" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: William Burroughs, Brion Gysin, Throbbing Gristle (Re/Search #4/5) (Paperback)
Way back when this was released it completely changed my life. In later life I think I have a broader perspective, but it's still in my pantheon. I enjoyed re-reading these interviews while listening to the extensive FREE interviews with Throbbing Gristle available at the SavageRepublic and Mobilization places. It tells the story of a time that is gone now, as it was decaying.

Dr. Timothy Leary's Favorite Photo of Burroughs,
By A Customer
This review is from: William Burroughs, Brion Gysin, Throbbing Gristle (Re/Search #4/5) (Paperback)
The W.S. Burroughs photo in this issue was the late Dr. Timothy's favorite of Bill Burroughs--the great one with the gun in his hand. This alone is worth the price. Great photo, especially with the interview of Burroughs and the part about the murder of wife Joan in Mexico City. "There are no accidents" Burroughs liked to say all the rest of his life, after the 'accidental' shooting of Joan.
