Beefheart on Letterman

Docs & Non-Fiction (Profiles), Other Gems (TV Clip), Viral (Time Capsule)
[ 17:31 - from YouTube ]

This is pretty amazing to me as a historical document that shows that popular culture was not always so superficial. Here's this weird guy, amazing artist, Don Van Vliet, and he's on this nationwide television show with Letterman, and they are actually talking. For 17 minutes. It's not jokey, it's not promotional, it is real conversation. It is kind of nice. It makes you think: what the hell happened to us? When did we become such idiots?
