I just found you yesterday when I was looking 4 William Burroughs, but today wierdly I couldn't find the only martyr of cinema, the prophet shaman, PP.Pasolini. also great magicians like John & peter in coil & other unearthly tunes from sun ra are other huge gaps of your collection in my mind.
So good! An excellent exploration into the depths and creative nature of the troubled mystic and the monster that lies within.
