Any Harry Partch fans here? Did a search and didn’t see much mention of him...

Here’s one of my favourites from his earlier stuff. Story is he was homeless during the Great Depression and recorded hobo messages he’d found inscribed along the railroads, then later set them to music using many instrumentations.

My favourite version is this one which is done with a guitar and small organ tuned to his 43-note scale with two vocalists, the composer being the narrative one.
