[silence] John Cage on WKCR tonight

[A. P. Crumlish]

Cage also expressed a dislike of recorded music, but he didn't prevent
other people from recording performances of his own work and he even
supervised some of them.

In any event I am not sure the piece requires following Cage's
preferences regarding text.

By the way, here is a lecture of Joan Retallack discussing Stein's
influence on Cage:
