Memorable Recorded Interviews
Posted by kcgrady on 31 March 2009 - 3:06pm.
Trawling through You Tube this evening, I found footage of Lou Reed's 1974 interview on Australian TV whilst on his Rock And Roll Animal tour. I remember it being screened at the time and my memory of it was that his responses to questions were totally monosyllabic. That was not the case it seems, although it may have been edited at the time to make him look bad. It is still fun to watch - as is Iggy Pop on 'Countdown' being interviewed by media buffoon 'Molly' Meldrum. Can anyone else remember (and hopefully upload) any other corkers?

I'm sorry, all i could think of was him asking Carol for "two from the top and any other four" and Richard Whitely being shocked at him appearing sans shirt...
