Leo is right, once again...
Did anyone else have a problem with opening
the second (or first link) below.
The second link works for me by automatically starting RealPlayer to play
back the Verlaine radio interview. However, it doesn't necessarily do it
on your computer. I think if you go to this NPR page
http://www.npr.org/programs/asc/archives/asc10/index.html#verlaine
you'll be able to get it -- "Listen to a profile of Tom Verlaine from
NPR's All Things Considered." (It's worth the trouble!)
As for the first link, normally I find the Guardian website outstanding in
every respect, but now the Neil Young interview, which was there this
morning, has gone missing. Just to prove I wasn't imagining it, here's the
beginning and end of the article:
'I just stayed creative - kept writing songs'
When Neil Young discovered he needed brain surgery, he knew exactly what
to do: head for Nashville and record an album. He talks to Sylvie Simmons
Thursday September 22, 2005
The Guardian
'I think, in the background, you'd have to say there was a presence, a
feeling that it was time to deliver. That if you have anything to say,
that if there's anything on your mind, you'd better say it."
Just a few months ago, Neil Young had something serious on his mind.
Literally. A brain aneurysm. Doctors scheduled an urgent operation. Young,
though, had already booked studio time in Nashville. In between diagnosis
and treatment ("invasive neuroradiology"), Young wrote and recorded a new
album, Prairie Wind.
. . .
As I leave, I ask if and how Young plans to celebrate his 60th birthday.
"My wife has something planned - I don't know what; all she said was,
'Don't leave town, don't plan anything that day.' But, you know, I've got
great friends and they've been very supportive, so I think we'll just
celebrate."
He's starting to sound like a wise old man. Does it feel like that's what
he's becoming? Young grins broadly. "I hope not"
) Sylvie Simmons. Prairie Wind is out on Monday on Reprise.
... As if a Guardian editor suddenly discovered they didn't have
permission to put the interview on the Internet. Anyway, here's the
Guardian's review of the Neil Young album in question:

I have never had this happen before and I just went to the MM List
Archives
for May and opened a Lister's post with a live link to The Swans, and it
opened fine.
The 1st link when opened The Guardian tells me to enter info like my
e-mail
address, etc.

Subject: (TV) Neil Young, and Tom Verlaine
Noticed this Neil Young interview today:
www.guardian.co.uk/arts/features/story/0,11710,1575470,00.html
Which reminded me of this NPR profile/interview of Tom from 2? years ago:
http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/asc/asc10.verlaine1.ram
Tom talks about Neil Young, and himself... It also has what I believe is
the
only officially available recording of any of the Music For Films show
(only
snippets). But it's great to hear Tom talking...
