from International Detective Dragons From Outer Space
PART - 1 Round about the turn of the Last century George Bernard Shaw wrote a play called "Man and Superman" which he called a comedy and a philosophy. The premise of the play was that a wealthy, social revolutionary and confirmed bachelor named Tanner was attempting to run away from a woman he was destined to marry, and was captured by thieves in the desert. In the desert night, he has a dream which is the third act of the play. In the dream, the characters from Mozart's opera ' Don Giavonni ', come to life or rather come to death - and are placed in Hell. These two episodes ( 10 and 11 ) consist of my attempt to re-create a plausible reading from the 1952 Columbia Masterworks album of that Third act dream, popularly titled "Don Juan In Hell". While I may not agree with all the points made in the piece, the dialog - the concepts and the philosophies packed into this work are nothing short of brilliant. As far as the "mission statement" of Internationl Detective Dragons from Outer Space goes, - addressing questions of mystery that are important to all of the Human race . . . . This work fits that purpose like a tailored glove.
