Ahhh, Houston. Houston always seems to create a very specific type of musical creature, and Jandek is near-legendary. Jandek is one man, one man who has managed to record over 45 albums worth of music, mainly with his acoustic guitar and his voice. He is a recluse, in every sense of the word. His music is distributed via Corwood, which is probably just a synonym for Jandek. Considered by many to be the true and undisputed master of "Outsider Music," Jandek has been going strong since the late 70's. Quite an inspiring freak, for all the freaks out there looking for a role-model. Jandek's music is like an un-stripped exploration through the tangles of Jandek's mind, and done in harrowing form. -FUPPETS- heartily approves.
This is a documentary in several parts, entitled JANDEK ON CORWOOD. As always, thanks to the good folks at Sonic Youth Gossip Forum for the refresher.
Here is a link describing where and how to order from Corwood.
Enjoy.
