Nick Cave‘s spoken-word CD of readings from his 1988 novel ‘And The Ass Saw The Angel’ – previously only available through mail order – will be on general release by Mute Records on October 11.
The readings from the book – originally given away as a bonus CD with ‘Tender Prey’ – is accompanied by Mick Harvey and Ed Clayton Jones‘s music for a Sydney theatre production based on the book.
Apart from some possible European festival shows, Nick Cave has no other plans for the rest of the year.
