5 out of 5 stars everything old is new again.......2003-08-08

If you are at all a fan of the beats, you will love this disc. It soars giddily along.

4 out of 5 stars A new take on a classic jazz gem.......2003-01-28

The song is from Robert Frank and Arthur Leslie's quasi-vérité film, Pull My Daisy (1959), featuring major Beat writers Jack Kerouac (narrator), Allen Ginsberg, Larry Rivers and Gregory Corso. This new rendition is true to the original. The band Curse skillfully updates the jazz classic capturing the essence of the 1959 soundtrack. Helping capture the essence is the fact that Composer Amram plays on it. Amram grooves on the riff like never before, with spontaneity all the way. Marc Ribot shines as special guest, adding his trademark guitar stylings to the mix. The most interesting part of this single is the "B side" Graveyard Shuffle. The track is reminiscent of 1940s swing, only in the context of a rock n' roll track. Here, Amram and Ribot strut their stuff along with the NYC band.
