William S. Burroughs – Spare Ass Annie And Other Tales (CD) (1993) (FLAC + 320 kbps)

A collaboration between Burroughs, producer Hal Willner, and politico-rappers Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy. It features Burroughs reading excerpts from seven of his books set to music by the Heroes, mostly a slow, lazy funk that sounds like it was lifted from a ’70s blaxploitation soundtrack. Highlights include the 16-minute, decidedly Burroughsian holiday treat “A Junky’s Christmas” and “Words of Advice for Young People,” which first appeared on the Smack My Crack collection, minus the music.
