Watch & listen to Jack read from On The Road

Here's a clip of Jack appearing on the The Steve Allen Show. The best part: he reads from On The Road with Steve backing him up on piano. Get out your copy and follow along.

Awesome!

Did you ever notice how Jack cheated here, and inserted some of "Visions of Cody" into it? (The "I made a supplication in this dream" bit, for example, but more too...)

So technically, you’d need the two books to be able to follow along... :)

Anyway, I'm enjoying your blog posts.

Regards,

Simon

Yes and if you pay close attention, he is reading the END of On The Road with the book open to the beginning! So clearly he had a script he was reading from and was not using the book. All the more reason to insert some other stuff! Good observation, Simon!
