Review of The Plan- Mental


Perhaps one needs to be conversant with The Plan in order to appreciate "Mental"?

This piece is a step back in sensitivity and awareness.

A monologue explaining the narrator's madness is sandwiched between two pieces of silly melodrama. It begins with a caricaturesque, tabloid-like collage alluding to disorganized thinking patterns . A narrative follows. Then the listener is subjected to the 1960's "They're Coming to Take Me Away".
