Digitally remastered from the original 1981 Labor Record release, Kotik's Many Many Women has long been considered a masterpiece of 1970s underground music. The polyphonic composition sets Gertrude Stein's entire novella Many Many Women to music and marks the crystallization of Kotiks musical aesthetic. Described by Richard Kostelanetz as 'continually austere and yet engaging, realizing a musical reinterpretation of Steins text,' Many Many Women highlights both the musicality of Stein's poetry and Kotiks distinctly personal treatment of melody.
The liner notes include essays by Kostelanetz and Village Voice critic Kyle Gann.
