the Cage fire...

[Peter Becker <pbecker3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Surely Cage has a large discography, though one of the largest discographies
of any composer couldn't confirm, or agree. I think Bach has him beat by a
mile, or many miles.   Cage's stance on records and his hypocrisy in having
so many in his catalog is so Cage-ian- contradictory, dada, and not taking
himself too seriously. If Cage -really- felt them to be worthless, he'd
never have made them. One does need to eat and pay the rent though. I think
his comments on records were not to be taken -too- literally.

He also said that the only 2 truths he learned at midlife were that the Sun
and orange juice were bad for you, though I'm sure he's ventured outside
from time to time.
