5 out of 5 stars Scary and compelling.......2004-08-13

When Burroughs was alive you never knew where you'd see him emerging from, whether it be a haunted house or Lincoln Center or the direst shooting gallery. Somehow he kept it all together while managing to hone one of the most distinctive voices in show business. Ably produced, CALL ME BURROUGHS features the novelist as he slips in and out of many characters; one wonders whether the monologuist Ruth Draper might have been an early influence on the young, wealthy St Louis-born heir slash ne'er do well, for such is the power of his "Method Acting" that you might well feel that he was possessed by the various spooks and rednecks who populate his great novels NAKED LUNCH or NOVA EXPRESS.

He cuts through the linear and distorts the line of reality like a seismograph perfectly attuned to the stupendous changes in the political and social mores of the century he lived through, and this CD will alternately bore you and transfix you. There are other recordings, but this might be the best.

5 out of 5 stars the guy's a genuine trip!.......2004-06-02

if you liked the cronenberg film"naked lunch"or any of willie's books,guess what?you'll like this just as much!his voice cannot be duplicated because it's so dambed distinct-you gotta hear him to know what's up.me personally,I would've like to hear him read some pantera lyrics or barry gifford novels,but that would've been a long shot and "call me burroughs" is more that any self-respecting tripper could ask for!fans of the "leary biscut"-get it!!!

5 out of 5 stars greatest story ever told!.......2002-02-28

mr burroughs voice makes me feel warm all over, reminds of all the time i spent only with my dad.... all those carefree days after school in the park. brings back such a flood of warm fuzzy memories about my first score, my first feeling of life in my veins... i just wish i could have sat on mr. burroughs lap while he read aloud to me with his stories... alas, he is all but gone... well, he is gone ... i thought i was gonna get a reading about tarzan but this is much better... if only... if only.... *cries softly* ... buy this before it is too late...

5 out of 5 stars A Mindblowing Debut recording.......1999-12-17

The shot heard round the world. The debut recording from the late genius Bill Burroughs. 8 brillant recordings without the distraction of any background noise. Burroughs reads from his classic novels Naked Lunch, and nova express with his usual laid back style. Thought provoking and influential even 30 years later. Very likely to be the best recordings ever made by this master. The new packaged cd includes extensive liner notes, and many great photos. This is the stuff, baby!

5 out of 5 stars Naked Burroughs.......1998-06-18

Superb monotone ramblings crawl out of the mind of Burroughs on this no frills recording. There is no music to distract you from the spoken word. Lovely stories for the whole family.
