Lou Reed Shuts Down Interview Over Questions on 9/11 and Iraq War (2003)

Описание: On 28 May 2003, Lou Reed was interviewed by ITN's Nick Glass, during a sound-check ahead of the last night of his European tour. The main subject of the interview was the upcoming release of "NYC Man", a career-spanning anthology of Reed's work for which Reed himself had remastered nearly three hours of material. He discussed his musical philosophy that three chords was enough, stating proudly that a baby could learn to play Take a Walk on the Wild Side "in ten minutes". The conversation took a turn, however, when Glass chose to ask Reed about his feelings as a New Yorker in the aftermath of 9/11 and, more recently, in the eight weeks since the US invasion of Iraq.
