Crazy Baby is quintessential beat rap created by Reed in the early 70's. This he read at
Vesuvios in San Francisco to a standing ovation in 1975. He recorded this on a small cassette recorder sometime ago. It is 14 minutes long. A precurser to Rap and remains classical as well! It has been cleaned up a bit for sound quality. Listened to a few times and it is all in good focus.
'Crazy Baby' was written in the early 70's and expresses a love affair Reed had in a mental institution at that time. Thus 'Crazy Baby', an awesome, epic poem and performance!
