STEWART HOME - CYBER-SADISM LIVE! CD Sabotage Editions, Catalogue number HNTSAB 002.

This spoken word CD features highlights from four different live performances by novelist and arch wind-up merchant Stewart Home. The performances were chosen for their content rather than the quality of the recording. While most material is in stereo, two tracks are mono recordings. As well as readings and stand up routines, there is a cyber version of the story The True Blue Confessions Of Larry O'Hara, Spookbuster! which was created especially for this CD. Also included are guest appearances by Jimmy Cauty, Douglas Rushkoff and Pete Horobin. For full track listing see inlay card. Running time 58 minutes and 51 seconds (approx.)

Thanks to Jason Skeet and Colin Woodcock. This CD is dedicated to Shampoo from London, Nylon Beat from Helsinki and Mono Fans from Tallinn. Front cover photo of Stewart Home by Marc Atkins.

21. The True Blue Confessions Of Larry O'Hara, Spookbuster! (This story features a computer simulation of O'Hara's voice. The track is panned, the first half of the story running through the right channel, the second part through the left. To listen to the piece sequentially, adjust the balance control on your stereo system to hear the first half, then return to the beginning and re-tune for the second part. To savour the true craziness of a deranged stalker with a penchant for hiding in a pub doorways to spy on Stewart Home, simply leave the balance on a normal setting).
