Jandek ‎– "Houston Saturday" (Corwood Industries ‎– CORWOOD 0813) 2013

So you think you're alive do you? Listen to too much Jandek and you'll wish you weren't.
Although, this improvised avant-rock outing in his home town is one of his best later period Jandek recordings. The representative really gets into his vocals,bordering on the 'rocking-out'.He even sounds a bit drunk??? However, my personal fantasy Jandek has to be an abstainer from alcohol,so i'll imagine he's just venting his recluses angst.....yep that works for me.
As unconnected as the song titles seem to be with the music,just reading the words has you asking uncomfortable questions about life,the universe and everything.....'42', right?...thats as good an answer as anything.
How do you know you're alive? How do you know you're not gonna be switched off at any second by an alien's claw when the programme has terminated? Is it all just a lucid dream in the mind of an indeterminate entity that some of the dumber parts of the dream call 'God'?
But Jandek 'Knows', and in the midst of this nebulous reality, so do we.
The answer was fleshed out at the Free Press Summer Fest, Houston, Texas, June 1, 2013 by jandek and uncredited rhythm section.
The answer is that there IS NO ANSWER! In fact the actual question is a bit vague,so stop searching and get on with the delusion that you actually exist.
