Video: Bukowski Cruises Hollywood Blvd (So you don't have to)

Don’t freak with old Buke. Arthur Magazine posted yesterday an excerpt from Charles Bukowski’s Tapes (1985). In it, the crusty old drunk rides around Los Angeles in a convertible and points out the crazies, the flop houses, the drug markets and killing alleys. Listen to his cadence. Hear the voice of old Buke. We’re heading to Venice Beach for two weeks this Sunday this is getting us in the mood for some balmy L.A. lechery.
