Gentleman....surely we can talk sensibly about this. Watch, as a 1971 TV debate featuring Ohr Records co-owner Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser goes horribly wrong. See the clip here.

I'm a Librarian, living in Whitley Bay, Tyne & Wear, England. I've been collecting records for as long as I can remember and used to spend what seemed like an endless succession of teenage Saturday afternoons in Manchester looking for that next elusive Holy Grail album. These days I can hardly move for towers of CDs! I am the author of the book Deep Distance - The Musical Life of Manuel Gottsching.
The Kaiser seems positively sane compared to his axe-wielding detractor.
ReplyDeleteIt's not your average conversation. That's for sure.
ReplyDeleteIt must have been staged! They look pretty calm. And why bring an axe to a TV interview? And then steal the microphones afterwards? Absurd, but funny.
ReplyDeleteHmm....Bringing an axe to a TV interview is certainly somewhere beyond unusual. Perhaps he had been out in the forest, chopping wood? (-;
ReplyDeleteWhat a nut job!
ReplyDeleteGreat site, I drew a picture of Manuel on my site.
