Herbert Huncke reads part of 'Detroit Redhead' at the SUNY Buffalo Spring Festival in 1966. Only known recording—transferred from cassette. Sound quality OK—some clipping & distortion.  Cuts off before the end of the piece.

Herbert Huncke reads @ SUNY Buffalo  (Side 2)

Short reading by Leslie Winer of an excerpt from Herbert Huncke's 'Guilty of Everything'.  Herbert describes Joan Vollmer Adams Burroughs & his great respect & love for her.  Joan, of course, died at age 28 & has become just a footnote in somebody else's story.  Huncke told me she was the smartest one of them all.  I don't doubt it for a minute.  -LW
