Wordspeak Music, Vol.1
Edwin Torres hosts a short tribute to verbal and rhythmic fireworks with Eric Dolphy's Improvisations And Tukras from his classic album Other Aspects; The Spirit, Kamau Daa'ood's incendiary performance with Billy Higgins on drums; Non Compos Mentis by Haiku D'Etat, the brilliant and rare recording by the virtuosic emcees of Freestyle Fellowship; Explosive by Diverse - collaborating with the explosively breathless Lyrics Born - and Amiri Baraka with DJ Spooky on Black Dada Nihilismus.
A Tasty Lack of Think is a suite of 3 radio plays written and performed by Edwin Torres and Sharon Mesmer playing the characters Auntie Intellectual and PeePee Cousin. This part was engineered by Fred Stesney at See-It-In-Sound Studio, New York and produced by Edwin.
