Edition of 35 copies, with two inserts. A reissue of Angus MacLise's  Kathmandu Cycle with added material from other, long out of print, CCC releases. Angus MacLise is something of a legend within the realms of avant-garde sound. A central figure of the 1960s New York underground, the percussionist, composer, poet, occultist and calligrapher contributed to the early Fluxus newspaper, VTre, was an early member of the Theatre of Eternal Music, alongside La Monte Young, John Cale, Tony Conrad, and Marian Zazeela, and was the first drummer for the Velvet Underground. Rigorously creative, in addition to numerous explorations across a number of media, Maclise recorded a vast amount of music between the mid-'60s and the late-'70s that remained largely unreleased until 1999 when it began to appear on imprints like Siltbreeze, Sub Rosa, Quakebasket, and Table of the Elements. Spanning trance-inducing percussion works, spoken word, poetry, tape cut-ups, minimalist drone, and electronics works, these albums unveiled Maclise, then nearly forgotten, as one of the true visionaries of '60s and '70s counterculture.
