I think a good start is to look at:
http://www.powerset.com/explore/semhtml/Derek_Raymond...and then also:

The language is as stunning as Ken Bruenıs...
There are also recordings of him reading with members of Gallon Drunk rock
group doing the music ..available on Netflix (I got it about 6 months ago)
