Pokey LaFarge - Interview video free download

My Hero!

Alex Allan

I love artists who take a stand and do the music they believe in, rather than the whims of the market. Our ears are tired of cookie cutter music, but man how can we not love true American blues. Pokey and his band bring us, tired listeners, something fresh and endearing to listen to. Thanks,Pokey!

"You are fond of rivers I read somewhere", says Dutch clueless fellow. Pokey is the biggest fish, and he would not be tempted with some silly bait.

That Pokey guy not only plays great music, he is obviously a smart, articulate fellow that has a lot of interesting things to say regarding (blues) music and its history. As a Dutch person who regularly watched this program (which is generally a very high quality interesting program on all kinds of music) I am very dissapointed in the interviewer this time. Could have been even more interesting. Not his best day I am afraid.

Pokey is a wise and charming man, his music and band are the best, but man that breathing from the interviewer on the mic made this unbearable and his lack of intelligence on the questions is awful.

Yes,that's because nowadays, interviews like this one - exemplary like no other - are more about the hosts themselves than they deal with the artist in question. It's quite unfortunate, because altogether different from mainstream commercial television, a show like Vrije Geluiden would be the perfect occasion to discuss music in-depth...I'm sure that would rather appeal to the respective interest group of viewers than scare them off..

Tim Vergoossen

It has become quite common in the Netherlands to be quite artistic and romantic in their way of interviewing people. Where artists would be asked "how did your home influence your music" ten years ago, Dutch interviewers seem to ask more often questions like "if I say water, what do you say?"

BaronPfeill

A little ignorant?! That guy evidently didn't do his homework. It's simply embarrassing that he doesn't ask any further, either about the musical traditions of the South or Pokey's self-conception as an artist indebted to the great old time music of the past.. Pity!

Diego Nadeau-jasso

He played Hestiation Blues there. What a great song!

Monica Cliff

I was thinking the same thing!

BuckLoreFitches

What an intelligent man.

Pokey doesn't wait for a good interviewer to give a good interview. Maybe a language thing though in the guys defence.

Keeten Williams

I kind of feel like the interviewer is a little ignorant.

Doc Cornn
