Scope and content

The Longmont Colorado gas station that Jack Kerouac wrote about in "On the Road" was moved twice to protect it from certain destruction. Our present day bulldozes the past to make room for quaint condominiums and homes that pretend to be part of an American yesteryear of cottages and town squares. "Not Enough Night" is a swan song for bygone hipsters, who longed for more "life" amid the coming storm of the post-World War II suburbs, shopping malls and the lonely existence of the solitary consumer. This tape commemorates the passing of the fiftieth year since the publication of "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac and “The Americans” by Robert Frank.
