New DVDs of live readings!
This from Dennis Del Torre, who owns the footage of a Bukowski reading at the Viking Inn (short excerpts of which can be seen in Born Into This). He's got a DVD release almost ready to hit the streets, but now:
Hey there. This project takes more twists and turns. Turns out that the Redondo Beach, Sweetwater Club reading WAS taped. Same thing as me. He sat on it for 25 years and is now preparing to release it. So we have been talking, the three of us, and plans are underway to release them as a boxed set. I am planning to come to San Pedro to meet with Linda and this fellow - Jon Monday - to go over everything. That should be around Feb.10th. Maybe we could meet?
A box set of live readings on DVD? Sounds like good things are happening...
The Viking Inn, if you don't know, was in Vancouver and the reading took place in 1979. Included are "The Secret Of My Endurance," "The Nine Horse," "Combat Primer," "Born Into This," and tons of others from the era. Primo vintage stuff. The DVD should be great.
