Sounds Like: For the adventurous, the true music
cognoscenti—and we’re talking authentic balls to
the wall, freakness habitués here—you’re in for a
tasty treat. A platter of epic proportions that
mainlines the scatological with the sublime: The
Grand Guignol against their feckless
mediocrity.
What you hold in your hands is but a sample, a
veritable slice of life into one C. Neil Scott.
Eschewing the rose-colored misty memoir, this
little ditty takes the tack of a full-on verbal
assault…a cacophony of disquietude that spans
more than a decade. Monsieur Scott’s carved out
quite a life for himself, and the bloody carcass
is laid bare here. Chronicling the occasional
Russ Meyer induced message from oversexed
females, to the jazz accompanied homeless
guy…it’s all within and waiting,
breathlessly.
So what are you waiting for? The psychotropic
L-train’s just now leaving. Grab your ticket and
make sure you’re onboard. I know I’ve already
picked out a seat upfront.

Reminds me of the urologist’s daughter that had a
butt like a 1/4 sheet of plywood. As Foghorn
said, “Here comes square pants.†Truly
disturbing. Genius. Yes.
