He was interviewed by Terry Gross on NPR's Fresh Air today. I only caught the very end of it on the way to work - listening now online. linkThe parts were he talks about the impact of the Velvets (on he and John) and Bowie (on his 70s work) was pretty revelatory.

You probably know this, Gav, but Brian Epstein loved The Velvet Underground & Nico and once had a chat with Lou about maybe getting something going for them in England (I think he was hoping to get their UK publishing as well) - but nothing happened right away, and then he died.

Anyone else think he looks really good now that he's letting the grey in? Gramps is still getting around pretty well these days. Brian Wilson (two days younger) is really struggling, and is in a wheelchair.

Brian Wilson (two days younger) is really struggling, and is in a wheelchair. Fifty-odd years ago Brian was in a sandpit. Or bed. or bathrobe.
Got top agree though that old whatsisface is looking better for flaunting his age.

I can't believe neither you nor Hatz are making the case for a vegetarian diet!

I'm sure Paul is making that point repeatedly to anyone who'll listen.

Never knew about the VU and Bowie connections. I should check this out.
