More on Ginsberg. I remember during the book signing a couple of men walking around the Village Green Book store who appeared very out of place and had that faint aroma of police of some sort. At the time I wondered why anyone would be remotely interested in a dying old poet. Of course they also could have been employed for security by the store or Ginsberg.
Every modern lyricist from Dylan to 50 Cent to the Stooges should understand the influence that Ginsberg has had on their words.
