In Brief
Murray is a “sesquipedalian”--someone who is characterized by his use of long words. What makes “Enigma” so pleasurable is that this rhythmic riddler places breath control--not what kind of car he drives, money he makes or drug he smokes--at the center of his art. He’s the embodiment of electric poetry.
