I'm a huge Brautigan fan... but his voice sounds like Big Bird's (from Sesame Street) to me.

[MNWilt]

wow, it really is cool to hear his voice. he was brilliant!

Brautigan was a genus. And he still haunts Washington Square Park in North Beach, San Francisco. I Know, because he has share his presence with me there on a few occasions. Each visit was Melancholy, strangely even a bit morbid. But they were always memorable and sacred to me. 'Cheer's! Richard. Feel free to do us a favour and drop in any time you want! Hail & Farewell!"

@sonjasayssmile "It was the voice of an Anglican divinity student under heavy sedation."

Shades of English 101. Brautigan was great, but sometimes a bit too enamored with himself. I suppose this stuff was cutting edge back in 1970. Brautigan was just canny enough to consider that whole album a prank---if you bought it, joke's on you. The guy was, in many ways, ahead of us all.

[orannatan]

me too

I can tell that there are many people that don't get Brautigan. They expect a complicated, intricate product from him and don't open themselves up to simple yet profound thoughts. It's tough to do and I think one of his underlying thoughts in just about everything he wrote.

His daughter Ianthe's book is called You Can't Catch Death.

[Mazurka1001]

everybody has to die, it's part of life.

Used to have this album. At thirteen I thought it was profound. Now, however...
