Maurice, since your knowledge seems to be encyclopedic, and since Keiji 
Haino is a Japanese avant-garde alternative musician, I'm wondering if 
you're familiar with Ryuichi Sakamoto. (Though you might regard Sakamoto as 
more mainstream since he won an Oscar for the score of "The Last Emperor".) 
I think Sakamoto is a genius but I haven't heard most of his vast musical 
output, and guidance would be appreciated.

But then I haven't heard Jandek either, nor any Verlaine or Television 
bootlegs. Russ mentioned the Slims boot and reading Keith's description 
(www.marquee.demon.co.uk/slims.htm) has made me fiercely curious. (Dare I 
wade into the ocean of boots?)

And Maurice makes time to play music as well!
