R.I.P, Lou Reed

That is such an absurd thing to say, I can't believe it was meant seriously.  Can you find the exact quote?

I can't, but I suspect you should trust your instincts re: his seriousness on this matter.

Believe me, your old Gramps is struggling with distant memories of this interview. I also seem to remember him saying something jokingly scornful about the dead bozo Jim Morrison, which I assume would ruffle fewer feathers here.

I don't remember what he said about Dylan, just something like "He hasn't done anything good in forever," blah blah. (He also said that he, Lou, was a better guitar player than Jimi Hendrix.)

Reminds me of that scene from Don't Look Back where Dylan drives a Time Magazine reporter crazy by claiming he's a better singer than Enrico Caruso. "I can hold a note longer, man!"

I'd like to think that Lou was paying tribute to Bob Dylan every time he acted ridiculous with an interviewer.

Does anyone know where to get that performance that Tom played on the show a couple of weeks ago. It had some interview stuff and then some music.  I assume it was some radio session, I have been trying to google it but I am not having much luck.
