I went to a doctor and he said: I’m afraid this is no stiff neck--
I think we’re going to have to operate right away.
I couldn’t believe it so I went to a few specialists and they all said the same thing--we’ll have to operate immediately.
So I finally decided to have the operation and right before, the doctor said: Oh, by the way, what kind of insurance do you have? And I said: I don’t have any insurance.

Nata nel 1947 a New York, ha iniziato la sua carriera negli anni '70 come musicista avant-garde, combinando elementi di musica classica, jazz e elettronica con testi poetici e narrazioni surreali.
