An excellent mix. You’ve managed to make the music as captivating and detailed as the vocals without detracting from or overpowering them. Actually it would take quite a bit to overpower such a dramatic reading. It’s unusual, and I do so like the unusual.

I was going to say I like this, but then “like” doesn’t really cover what I mean; because the vocals are tricky and almost unsettling - yet you’ve created a very musical and respectful setting for them that balances it out.

So.

I rate this three Swingline staplers.

an astounding field recording of Cherry’s voice & an equally astounding musical track to back it up.

Love the bt which tracks the drama of Cherry’s story so well.

The vocals started out as those on the last track of Trey Gunn’s Third Star album, but then it took a completely different direction. You have managed to create an interesting backing track without getting in the way of Cherry’s vocals. Splendid!

Excellent avant-garde musical theater!

Cherry has an amazing stage presence…and a chameleon like ability to adapt a characterization.
Her spooky evocation is brilliant in the “Prostitute’s Ghost” recitation. You did a wonderful job creating a dramatic musical backing too R.T.!

Friggin’ awesome. Think we’ll hear Ashlee Simpson cover this? ;-)

I knew my lounge antics were missing an ingredient… Margaret Cho! Eureka! lol This is deaf poetry magic!
