Agreed. Although I don't think he was part of the main 'gang' of beats centred around Kerouac, Ginsberg, etc.

He seems to have been more of an influence on a later generation, especially in music. I know that Henry Rollins and Lydia Lunch are huge fans.

He's quite like Bukowski and Burroughs in that he's managed to avoid any 'hippy' associations in a way that Kerouac, Ginsberg, et al, haven't.
