Dr Sax - Excerpt

Lowell Massachusetts is the territory of the mysterious Dr. Sax. Kerouac wrote six books about Lowell, and he is still there in the all the ways that matter. These two short segments contain bootleg audio of Jack himself, recorded in some beatnik's apartment over jugs of wine in 1961. The Sinatra records were already playing in the room in the background. This is a work n progress. glasscapsule.com

This is a great clip. Where did you get the tape?

[jfc999]

Bought the audio tape off the street in Manhattan. I shot the stills in Lowell. The picture of the house at the end of the first segment was the house he was born in. That actaully is the Moody st bridge.

Doctor Sax is one of my favourite Kerouac novels and this excert is wonderfully dark and woeful. Thanks for the posting!!
