Edition of 40. Counter Culture Chronicles is proud to announce the release of a previously unreleased recording featuring Beat Generation poet Jack Micheline performing a complete reading in Erie, Pennsylvania, 1983. This intimate documentation captures the raw energy and spontaneous spirit that defined Micheline's legendary performances.

Recorded during the height of Micheline's creative period, this rare tape presents the poet in his element—delivering his trademark blend of street-wise verse and bohemian philosophy to an engaged audience. The recording showcases Micheline's distinctive vocal style and his ability to transform written word into living performance art, the same qualities that earned praise from Jack Kerouac, who wrote the introduction to Micheline's debut collection River of Red Wine, and Charles Bukowski, who declared him "the last of the holy preachers sailing down Broadway singing the song."

This limited edition release offers collectors and Beat literature enthusiasts a unique opportunity to experience Micheline's work as it was meant to be heard. The tape represents an important addition to the documented legacy of one of the Beat Generation's most authentic voices.
