i grew up w/ this guy as a kid in the 70s. He was hysterical with his chain smoking, and snow white 70s haircut, boisterous laugh and in your face… ney, in your head interview style.
That was really his strength and Achilles heal as an interviewer… if he could not get in your head, then he just did not get you. Witness his interview with the Sex Pistols it’s amazingly bad (and funny).
But then go to You Tube and watch the 4 part interview w/ Charles Manson. It is - bar none - the best Manson interview of all time.
“Come down from the Space Shuttle, Charlie… talk to me. What does it feel like to control people? Do you like that? Controlling People?”
It’s a great battle of egos. Must viewing.nytimes obit
