• In July 1948 Allen Ginsberg hallucinated the voice of William Blake chanting two songs from his Songs Of Experience. He later started setting Blake’s songs to tunes of his own invention.
• In 1976 he began an association with guitarist Steven Taylor, who would accompany Ginsberg’s performances of Blake for the next 20 years.
• This CD contains Steven Taylor’s own arrangements and records of the two books. Taylor (as well as producer Scott Petito) has been a member of the Fugs for 35 years, and Blake’s songs frequently feature in their concerts.
• Contains an in-depth note with a biography of Blake and many illustrations from the US Library Of Congress’ 1974 copy of Songs Of Innocence and Experience.
• Released to coincide with the William Blake exhibition which runs at London’s Tate Britain until February 2020.
