An interesting interview conducted with Hugh in Los Angeles on a promotional visit ahead of the first US tour of the following year (rescheduled from November '77 it seems). Hugh's disdain for L.A. was evident even on his first visit.
To me this recording sounds like the raw interview tape prior to editing for radio. A good quality early insight into the band's stormy relationship with the US.
The Pistols and The Clash get discussed along with the state of Bitish politics.... Hugh describes the Callagham government of 1977 as being very right wing...... what did he make of New Labour I wonder!
Please note that the speed increases a little beyond 20 minutes, but it's still highly listenable despite Hugh morphing into one of the meninblack!.
