  1. I enjoyed Charlie Rose. He did an excellent job interviewing interesting people.
    Too bad he turned out to be a sexual creep and got booted off the air.
    Such a great career torpedoed by his unruly behavior.

  2. Sorry Robbie….. 😉

    Ok now….

    Bottom line Mr Robbie Robinson….. The Great Human…..The Great Voice….. The Great Talent…. that you are…. Should be shown separately…. Not to blow smoke … But you are a true human being that we all love and appreciate….

    Especially me Sir. 🙂

    I'm enjoying mine with hot (diner style for me) coffee on my patio in the beautiful North Carolina sky..

  3. Charlie Rose…… Michael Stipe……

    You kidding me……… ?

    Michael Stipe is a man……. a Human Being…….. well..well beyond our comprehension of all human beings

    He is a life changer…… a life saver ……

    a world changer… and if we could just softly pay attention…. just breath… get our minds clear….. softly…. pay attention……..

    He Could Be (moreso than he already has been)……………

    He Could Be a World Saver.

    Michael Stipe is an existentual

  4. So soft spoken n sexy as hell.
    The song parakeet that he speaks of is beautiful. Michael's one of my favorite singers along with Bowie and Bono. ???

  5. No way Stipe could have done this when they started. He was painfully shy when not fronting the band. He found a way to grow into the role of spokesperson, along with Buck and Mills, who were always great in interviews. I wish Bill had talked more. Still waters and all that.

  6. I would pick Lou Reed as my favorite. He had such memorable topics, or the way he wrote and performed them stick like glue, "Heroin", "Rock & Roll", "Walk on the Wild Side", the whole "New York" album. He nailed what he wrote about. Micheal Stipe's is a nice wordsmith but more like a eh murmur.

  7. Thanks for posting the Interview with Michael.
    Charlie Rose has a great show and guests.

    I was lucky to have known Michael back in the 75-76 time frame when he "found" Patti Smith. When he played for me her record , I thought she was interesting but I didn't get it. She and Michael (R.E.M.) are now in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I guess someone got it.

    As far as the audio quality of the video clip, I couldn't tell if the eq needed more highs or that was just Michael, maybe both.
