eugene chadbourne

back in the mid-'90s, larry harrison sold me a copy of pachuco cadaver by the jack and jim show (a pseudonym for eugene chadbourne and jimmy carl black), a collection of beefheart covers played by what sounded like hillbillies who laced their moonshine with acid. chadbourne was on the lower manhattan scene in the '70s and now lives in greensboro, north carolina. genius or charlatan? _you_ decide!
