Nearly 20 years ago (frighteningly), a friend and I did a one-off newsletter
called GOOD NEWS FOR ONCE, in which I listed some of the signs of the
impending apocalypse.
One was hearing the Velvet Underground on Muzak. (Fulfilled - was in a
store, and David Sanborn's version of JESUS was playing)
While I think I'd READ about Jandek in those days, I didn't have any of his
records, so this couldn't have made the list, but...
the other day, after listening to BLUE CORPSE (the album I listen to the
most), I found myself whistling a Jandek tune. No, not 'I Passed By The
Building' - in fact, 'C F'.
shudder... ;)
