This was a beauty when I saw it at the Special Collections Department. I did a search on Ebay and came up with nothing but, as it turns, Amazon sells it!

Abebooks' copy is more expensive, slightly so :D

I have all of those on the "At Terror Street and Agony Way" 2 CD set, which has been mentioned before. They're 1969 recordings made at DeLongpre Ave.

Any idea if the ones with this book the same versions?

 

[mjp]

I don't know, I don't have that CD. maybe someone else does.

Actually, if you'd like, I can upload one of them if you want to compare yourself. Just say which one and I'll link you up.

 

[mjp]

:rolleyes: Hmm...somehow all the tracks were uploaded to the audio directory. So just let me know which you want a link to.

 

[hank solo]

...the audio directory...

All links please :)

Pretty please :D

What was that you said elsewhere about copyright and passwords? ;)

Can you provide a password protected area for this sort of thing?

 

[mjp]

I'll have to look into that. I don't want to step on any toes.

In the meantime, here's one for comparison purposes.

Heat Wave - presentation copy

I have a Presentation Copy of Heat Wave and am considering selling it. I'm curious to know if anyone on this forum is interested in making a reasonable offer on it.

Bukowski, Charles, and Ken Price: HEAT WAVE.
(Santa Rosa: Black Sparrow Graphic Arts, 1995)
First edition, Presentation Copy signed by the artist, includes one-hour compact disc of Bukowski reading mounted inside the front cover, 17 black-and-white illustrations by Ken Price. Near fine cloth folding box with silkscreen cover illustration, separate compartments for the suite of plates and for compact disc, the whole enclosed in a Plexiglas slipcase. Note: the separate prints are not present -- this was the copy used as a guide for the makers of the plexiglas case. (Krumhansl #145).

 

[Jason]

I still have this presentation copy of Heat Wave, if anybody is interested. Not sure what it would cost to ship, but let's say US$250 for the book and we'll figure out shipping depending on where it goes...

Ken Price, if you're not familiar with him, was featured in the recent movie The Cool School about the Ferus Gallery and Los Angeles art scene in the 50's...

There's a review of the film here:

$250 for a presentation copy of Heat Wave?!
Are you sure?

 

[cirerita]

I felt very tempted... but shipping that big box to Spain would be outrageously expensive.

 

[Rekrab]

That seems way too cheap.

I think you might have missed this part: (I did when my jaw first dropped)

[Jason]

Yes, I think it's a fair price. The separate prints are NOT present as hank solo pointed out...

I have a couple of people here who have sent me PMs. I'm going to take it to the Post Office today to weigh it.
