Henry Rollins: Big Ugly Mouth/Short Walk On A Long Pier

$15.00

Short Walk On A Long Pier is the first spoken word album released by Henry Rollins. The content is culled from spoken word performances in Los Angeles, San Diego, Baton Rouge, Denver, New York City and Amsterdam. The one piece of music, “Alienation”, is performed with Rowland S. Howard of The Birthday Party and Chris Haskett. Originally, the album was a limited cassette only release of 1000, but it was re-released at least twice. It was first re-released as a vinyl record in 1989 on Lone Wolf Records and again in 2006 on 2.13.61 as a double disc with Big Ugly Mouth. In Rollins’ own words, “It’s just awful.”

Big Ugly Mouth is the second live spoken word album by Henry Rollins, released in 1987 on Quarterstick Records. It was reissued with his first spoken word album, Short Walk On A Long Pier (1985) and new artwork on 2.13.61 Records in 2005. It was recorded at various tour dates in 1987 at Madison, WI, Chicago, IL, Minneapolis, MN, Denver, CO, Los Angeles, CA and New Brunswick, NJ.
