On the Road with Ellison Volume Six is the latest report from Harlan Ellison and a life lived on the road. This 2-CD set features an exclusive new essay and Harlan’s historic 2005 Grand Master Award acceptance speech.

Follow Harlan on the road and get inside the head of America's most outspoken wordsmith. This is Ellison live on stage and anything goes.
