My Dinner with Daniel (Private Stash)

Filmed in 1988 at the home of Half Japanese co-founder David Fair, this raw VHS footage is a work of cinema verite. Daniel Johnston, Jad Fair, Susan Fair, David Fair and Charles Brohawn (The Tinklers) all participate in this intimate, unguarded gathering. Daniel performs some of his classic material, including the astonishing "Don't Play Cards with Satan" from the documentary "The Devil and Daniel Johnston". First pressing limited to 250 hand-numbered copies. What if the film 'My Dinner With Andre' was with Daniel Johnston instead of Andre? We didn’t know what would happen, but we knew it was bound to be great. On the last day of the recording session for the album 'It’s Spooky' Daniel and I were invited over to my brother David’s home to have dinner. We filmed the dinner with a VHS camera. It’s Daniel telling stories and singing songs. It’s time now for dinner and you’re invited. Kick off your shoes and pull up a chair. Here’s 'My Dinner With Daniel'. -Jad Fair
