Re: RIP Paul Morrissey
Interesting interview . Morrissey being the grumpy old man. Interviewer very much out of his depth - but to his credit keeps it all in.
I thought Barbara Rubin discovered the VU and took Morrissey and Warhol to see them. Morrissey claims it was him and then goes on to charmingly and completely slag them off as if they were totally witless . Maybe they were, in his eyes. It’s a fun and interesting read, and i need to go back and digest it in full. Thanks for the link.
I must confess that I’ve never been able to watch a Morrissey film in full. Must try again.

Re: RIP Paul Morrissey
The reason I posted this review is because I thought I detected echos of Lou and Moe in some of the things he said and the way he said them. Warhol is often mentioned as an influence on Lou's interview style, but I think he probably got some of the bitchiness from Morrissey.
Morrissey was an angry guy.
Quoted by Sounes:
"Do you think people want to read about the life of Lou Reed? You need a good title like ‘The Hateful Bitch’ or ‘The Worst Person Who Ever Lived.’ Something that says this isn’t the biography of a great human being, because he was not. He was a stupid, disgusting, awful human being.”

Re: RIP Paul Morrissey
I don’t hear any Lou Reed or Moe Tucker in what he says. In fact I’m a bit surprised you mention Moe Tucker. And I’m not sure Reed ever sounded that bitter about anything.falconwhit wrote: ↑31 Oct 2024 16:25 The reason I posted this review is because I thought I detected echos of Lou and Moe in some of the things he said and the way he said them.
