I don't actually collect royalties for it any more. The actual number is contested although it is generally considered to be in the top five-selling albums of all time. In 1977 you produced Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell, which you've described as a spoof of Bruce Springsteen …Ī very successful spoof, yes. The English have a particular fixation with the package. Talking of your package, do you remember you used to appear regularly in British music paper Sounds sporting what appeared to be a giant codpiece? So no matter what anyone had to say about my costume, it became all about Prince in his underwear.

Then Prince came on for his first national TV appearance and he wore a pair of tidy-whitey underpants and a big cape. I was wearing a slightly racy costume in which my, er, package was prominently displayed. My most interesting experience with Prince was on Saturday Night Live. Is it true Prince, a real Toddhead, used to come backstage to try to meet you? But I don't remember half the things I said. You're alleged to have said to Bowie: "I hear you're supposed to be ripping me off."

I don't remember our conversation, but I do remember somebody crying. I believe the aforementioned Ms Buell was there. Yes, in the back room at Max's Kansas City. I had a makeup and costume guy and he hung things on me (5). I was a dabbler in things I didn't necessarily want to be tied to. I don't think I was as purposeful in what I was doing. And both of you changed style from album to album. Both of you formed bands with the Sales brothers and wore dyed hair and tight-fitting spacesuits. In 1973 you and David Bowie produced seminal proto-punk albums (you worked with the New York Dolls, Bowie with Iggy and the Stooges). Last night! I had quite a few cocktails and then some fans gave me some pot. When was your last serious drug adventure? I'd be like, "Whoops! Mismanaged my dosage." Every once in a while I took a trip and never came back. That was still within the window of my psychedelic era – the thing about psychedelic drugs is they don't always wear off. What on earth were you on when you wrote 1975's 36-minute A Treatise on Cosmic Fire ? (4) You were smoking marijuana for the recording of 1971's Runt: the Ballad of Todd Rundgren, taking Ritalin and peyote buttons for 1972's Something/Anything? and on mescaline for 1973's A Wizard, A True Star. I've heard of someone getting married to Just One Victory – kind of, "You've finally landed one." That would probably be more of a divorce song. But do you know of anyone whose first dance was In and Out the Chakras We Go (Formerly: Shaft Goes to Outer Space) ? I recently got married to I Saw the Light (3) and your UK publicist tied the knot to Izzat Love. Reading on mobile? See the video for I Saw the Light She describes you as "the perfect combination of guitar hero, singer-songwriter rock star" (2). I try to avoid doing things that might enrage me. I haven't read it because the author is a fantasist. You make a lot of appearances in her book, Rebel Heart.

There's very little where I'd agree with that particular personality, on principle. Talking of teeth: your ex-girlfriend Bebe Buell (1) wrote that you look like a cross between Bugs Bunny and Antonin Artaud. You sing on Sir Reality, from your new album State 'It's good to be afraid'. Or Bend Over and Kiss Your Ass Goodbye, as we affectionately called it. Well, I lived through the Cuban Missile Crisis, so … I was still in school in Philadelphia, close to New York, a likely target. Is this one of the more serious escalations of global tension you've experienced in your lifetime? Well, it crossed my mind, but I couldn't figure what the hell they'd get out of it. It's not a tour per se, but I'm not at home.Īre you worried about North Korean rockets reaching Kauai, where you live? I'm doing a residence at a university here.
