purge.xxx #35 - I’m Here Just for a Moment and I’m Going to Have a Good Time and Then I’m Gone by Bobby Beausoleil & Jarett Kobek

purge.xxx releases music. It has been celebrated by The Wire magazine for its ‘disregard for the music industry, self-promotion and prevailing cultural norms,’ and an ‘ability to elevate distinct works and the obscure artists behind them.’ purge.xxx only releases music physically, unless a digital alternative has specifically been requested by a collaborating artist. It considers even the recording a compromise, but advocates things.

Running weekly, the series will broadcast the entire catalogue so far in chronological order, continuing here with I’m Here Just for a Moment and I’m Going to Have a Good Time and Then I’m Gone read by Bobby Beausoleil & Jarett Kobek.

Extensive 2023 recorded conversation between writer Jarett Kobek and artist/musician Bobby Beausoleil (over the California State Prison system telephone line), mainly about Kenneth Anger, and events occurring between 1966 and late 1967.

This series for Resonance Extra is the first time much of the label's catalogue has been available to hear outside of its material form. It accepts the invitation by Resonance on the basis that none of these sounds are stored. If you want to hear it you need to be able to access the radio at midnight every Thursday.
