Jack Smith - Silent Shadows On Cinemaroc Island - 56 Ludlow Street 1962-1964 Volume II




Again, this is courtesy of Tony Conrad's tape archives. Jack Smith was the film-maker/proto-performance artist who arguably gave birth to a whole generation of New York underground theatre, including Robert Wilson, Richard Foreman, Charles Ludlam and the Wooster Group. In the early '60s, Smith was at the height of his considerable powers, creating an alluring aesthetic out of second-hand Hollywood fantasies inspired by his lifelong muse, the Dominican-born actress Maria Montez, star of Cobra Woman and Ali Baba And The 40 Thieves.



CD jointly released on Table Of The Elements and Audio ArtKive in 1997.
