Photographer Michael Stipe accompanied the prophetic Patti Smith on her tour for two weeks in 1995 and Two Times Intro is his visual journal of her return to live performance following the death of her husband, Fred Sonic Smith. It also includes text by Stipe as well as written contributions from other prolific profiles including William S. Burroughs, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth and Tom Verlaine, those of the many who have been inspired by her creative visions. It also features portraits of other enthralling characters such as Allen Ginsberg.
