His influence can be felt myriad places -- when one listens to Lou Reed's dark, image-laden lyrics in the song "Heroin," or to Al Jorgensen's nihilistic vitriol on The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste. Performance artist Laurie Anderson often references his writings, and Gus Van Zant's casting choice of Burroughs as Tom the priest in Drugstore Cowboy was nothing short of inspired. Always restless in his creativity, Burroughs also dove into the world of modern art, proving himself to be quite handy with a shotgun and paint pellets. He died in 1997, miraculously making it to the ripe old age of eighty-three. - Will Lerner]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2366&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Wed, 1 Apr 2009 22:17:12 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.2366 art.2366 John Cooper-Clarke art.2366 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2366&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2366&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7484&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:23:54 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.7484 art.7484 watts prophets art.7484 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7484&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7484&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1234&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Sat, 19 Dec 2009 10:51:49 -0800 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1234 art.1234 The Last Poets art.1234 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1234&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1234&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4280&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Roots Reggae Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:31:06 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4280 art.4280 Mutabaruka art.4280 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4280&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4280&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3715&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Tue, 11 Aug 2009 08:08:32 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3715 art.3715 Allen Ginsberg art.3715 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3715&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3715&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss First Blues; employed Ginsberg for the film of "Subterranean Homesick Blues"; and commissioned him for liner notes on Desire) and the Clash (Combat Rock's "Ghetto Defendant" turns on the poet's stentorian contribution).

Born (1926) and raised in New Jersey, Ginsberg took inspiration from Walt Whitman and saw himself as a descendant of Whitman's American individualism. ("I'm putting my queer shoulder to the wheel," he vowed in another early classic, "America.") A trickster who incorporated poetry, blues and Buddhism in his performances, Ginsberg helped invent the '60s concept of "happenings." As an outgrowth of this persona, Ginsberg recorded frequently, offering not only the belated release of First Blues in 1983, but also an album of William Blake poems set to music (Songs of Innocence and Experience) and a stack of spoken word discs, including Allen Ginsberg Reads Kaddish: A 20th Century American Ecstatic Narrative Poem for Atlantic and The Lion for Real on Great Jones. (On the latter, producer Hal Willner matched Ginsberg with such jazz musicians as Bill Frisell and Marc Ribot. Willner later compiled the ultimate Ginsberg aural document, Rhino's four-CD Holy Soul Jelly Roll.)

Ginsberg's last years featured more musical collaborations. He teamed with composer Philip Glass for the album Hydrogen Jukebox and a theatrical production of "Wichita Vortex Sutra." (A 1994 recording of the latter was issued on Artemis in late 2004.) He and Glass also collaborated with Paul McCartney on the anti-war "Dance of the Skeletons." Although he died in 1997, Ginsberg's commitment, playfulness and deep seriousness live on. - Jaan Uhelszki]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4452&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Bop Thu, 3 Dec 2009 22:54:07 -0800 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4452 art.4452 Babs Gonzales art.4452 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4452&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4452&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16992175&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Thu, 19 Feb 2009 12:46:18 -0800 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.16992175 art.16992175 Sarah Elizabeth art.16992175 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16992175&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16992175&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.46308&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Comedy/Spoken Word Thu, 1 Oct 2009 11:36:49 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.46308 art.46308 Cassius Clay art.46308 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.46308&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.46308&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4188&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Thu, 5 Nov 2009 12:40:14 -0800 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4188 art.4188 Jim Morrison art.4188 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4188&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4188&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.68962&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:00:01 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.68962 art.68962 Rod McKuen art.68962 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.68962&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.68962&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.12942692&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Fri, 30 May 2008 10:35:06 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.12942692 art.12942692 Fr.

Listeners will find a number of selections from his first and most famous collection of poems Weary Blues: "The Negro Speaks Of Rivers," "I, Too," and "Mother to Son" are all recorded. A number of Hughes' blues-poems may also be heard, delivered in his remarkably gentle and refined voice. Together with Weary Blues and Hughes' astounding and highly unconventional 1958 collaboration with jazz legend Charles Mingus, the recordings offer an excellent survey of his mature work. Hughes was a visionary artist and thinker whose relevance just keeps increasing as time goes on. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7477&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:23:54 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.7477 art.7477 Cottonmouth Texas art.7477 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7477&variant=play&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7477&variant=data&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.8683221&rws=%2Fcomedy-spoken-word%2Fspoken-word%2Fpoetry-poetry-slam%2Fartist-chart.rss Poetry/Poetry Slam Mon, 26 Oct 2009 13:51:14 -0700 Top Poetry/Poetry Slam Artists on Rhapsody Online art.8683221 art.8683221 David J.
