Anyone else into that lunatic?
Check a sample at Trade side.

bukowski is so cool !!! i bought a german book where you can find all stones lyrics and some nice little stories written by bukowski !!!

Baboon Bro
Jag alskar honom!!
I love him.One of the best writer in the last century!Read all his books!!
Do you know that he wrote an article on Circus magazine about the Stones !!

He, knew there were some soft spots out there... !

Yep, i really liked what he wrote.
Remember the movie Barfly? "Do you need a drink?
"Yeah, like a spider needs a fly..."
Anyone tried the thermostrick?

Vilhelm
Nordic Stones Vikings

my favorite writer....i live near east hollywood where some of his writings were done......he blew the lid off of phony vague poetry....and his novels: "Women" "Ham On Rye" "Post Office" are GREAT!!.........his tombstone reads: Don't Try......he spawned a whole generation of imitators

Hey, ool BB´s an ool stage poet, now I can reveal it.
We used to call it physical or hardcore poetry.
Much fuzz, polices, riots... Short but intense
career around 1989-92, reunion in 2000,
probably a new reunion about 2010 if we may live
that long. Other rock'n'roll attitude poets
is for me Majakovsky [en.wikipedia.org]; Saarikoski; Bruno K. Öijer; Endre Ady; József Attila
and of course Phil Lynott, Jimbo Morrison & Patti Smith.
and loads of others I cant figure out now.
ditto authors Sture Dahlström;
or filmmakers Kaurismäki & Jodorowsky [www.horrorview.com].

Barfkowski says: Love Is A Dog From Hell

I thought he hated rock n roll--Mahler! I'd be curious to read his article in Circus.

Chas... he wrote an article for Creem Oct.'75 for the Stones show at the L.A. Forum.....all he talked about was going to the race track.....funny stuff.....and yeah.....he was heavily into classical

He couldnt possibly hate the Stones.
He was like a semi-clone of Keith in my mind.

he thought rock was kind of a joke.....he also hated Dylan....but he was born in 1920, so it makes sense

Burning in Water Drowning in Flames" ...the first thing I read by him. then 'Factotum"...great stuff, so funny and sad. got most of his work. he was reportedly not a bad painter too. I'd like to see some of his paintings.
he cut like a "hot poker through loose tinfoil"...
DR

I have read much by Buk, he is the greatest! I have at least 10 of his books. I treasure them as much as my Stones collection.

stones and bukowski = KEWL

I love his book "Post office".A pure classic.Gotta read some more of his stuff when I get more time on my hands.

My Username itself is a tribute to Keith (RIFFmaster) and BUKowski...riffbuk
And magazine was Creem( and not Circus as I mentioned earlier) and he concluded that "Beethoven was much more satisfying to listen to than Mick Jagger"

yeah Bro...good 'ol Buk.....what a talented character....some of his writing reminds me of vintage film noir dialogue

Gotta get those recordings (did you download the one
I posted on Trade side yesterday?)... I just discovered him
as a poet. Mostly read his novels or what they should be called.

He has/had a corresponding charachter in Sweden:
Sture Dahlström, who I´m afraid not has been translated too much.
Almost contemporary, lived 1924-2001.

Ok, eventually he started to look like ool´Ernest, but the writing
is much much closer to Bukowski. Left pic from the 50s, in Spain. Right 80s.

Dahlström - beatnik, oddball, rebel against the conform society, anarchist.
