Spoken Word

What are some of your favourite spoken word releases?

I don't even particularly care about the meaning of the words, but I think the right combination of music and speech can be very atmospheric.

I love falling asleep listening to Burrough's "Junky" (he has a fantastic voice and way of speaking), although I suppose it's more of a pure audiobook.

I would also love some recs for drone/ambient with spoken word spoken in a deep, calm voice.

And here's some good stuff:

That Sylvian record is an all time favourite of mine. There's an album called The Dream Membrane that Zorn and Laswell did with some poet, that's pretty rad if you're in the mood to track that down.

I have it in my collection but can't remember anything about it.
Thanks for the reminder.
