Original music soundtrack for the documentary Venice West and the LA Scene (2010)

“I had cut Lazy High Fly a couple years earlier but had never finished it and I thought it was a perfect fit for this project.”

The surviving poets, most still living in poverty, remain true to the uncompromising spirit they forged. Click to learn more.
