The first movement in Karachi's Autumn Silence is possibly the most moving of the post-surreal works. It deals with the recurring theme of shaving without a mirror and the frustration of running out of breakfast cereal. This is probably Karachi's finest piece of work, his notoriety rocketed after this debuted at Edmonton Sundown in support of a well known rock band. Karachi's life was never the same. He quickly decended into a lifestyle of drugs, alcohol and women. He died three years later from a surfeit of sausages. It also represents a period of prolific success. The eel cycle is one of the most popular requests on classic radio stations. Running at an immense sixty-two hours it is also one of the longest pieces of music ever written.
