Kris
I was on KPFA today with my old pal (and "retired punk rock mailman") Last Will and the legendary Kris Welch. I'm used to a very casual, shambolic, deliberately sloppy approach from years of college radio, which is a big contrast to the adroit, skillful, quintessentially professional way she steered the interview. Yet, she was also spontaneous and funny, and very "real." Her impromptu reading of the opening paragraphs of KDA was some of the best reading-out-loud I've ever heard.
We played a couple of songs from the record, I talked up the book and the album, and I played "The History of the Concept of the Soul' (because it's Will's favorite.) A great time.
