When he was 14, shooting the shit with composer John Cage, Gary took some advice that made him rehash his approach to music. The advice Cage gave him is that if your music "doesn’t irritate people, you aren’t doing your job." Some 7 or 8 years later he produced this gem. Here we see an awkward blend of teenage lust/depression, experimental lounge music, and a young man quite possibly going batshit insane while recording in his parent's basement. (After deciding that Al Grossman's studio in Woodstock wasn't working out, no less.)
The first listen might throw you off a little as the record tends to be, for most people, awkward on the first spin. After a few listens you should start to realize something like "Holy fuck...a genius."
This...I'm not even going to say anything about this. Just find it, set aside some 2.5 hours, and prepare yourself for mental rape. If anyone can find me a good torrent/link to this please send. I think you can also watch the whole movie on YouTube if you're into that...I'm not.
