Vampire
From David Greenberger
| Part of the The Duplex Planet series
| 00:01:58
Producers: David Greenberger and Terry Adams
A stream-of-consciousness recitation of facts from an imagined horror film including Bela Lugosi and Lon Chaney, with spooky music, followed by a ragtime conclusion. Part of the Duplex Planet project, this is a selection from the 1998 CD, The Duplex Planet Hour, with music by pianist Terry Adams.
Artist David Greenberger has been collecting thoughts, memories and stories from elderly Americans for more than a quarter century. Genuine, moving, and often funny, combined with music, the pieces
explore issues of aging by revealing real characters that are in decline, but are still very much alive. They reveal the common threads of our humanity.

Review of Vampire
Memories of being spooked as a child stitched together in a brief, jittery and irresistible essay from the always rewarding David Greenberger and The Duplex Planet. A sweet, yet oddly edgy piece perfect for all stations and all situations throughout the month of October and beyond. And "that was the end of the picture."
