R. Crumb: conversations



A 1991 interview I did with Robert Crumb has been included in a collection of conversations with R. Crumb, published by the University Press of Mississippi. I just got a copy a few days ago. My interview with Crumb first appeared in the Rocket (a NW music tabloid that I was associated with at the time) and I'd forgotten about it until I got a call asking for permission to use it.




I recall being unsure about interviewing Crumb, assuming he'd rather draw comics than talk about them, I also figured he also rather talk to a girl than a guy (Crumb's taste being well-established) so I foolishly baited Crumb by signaling in advance that we didn't have to talk about comics, we could talk about sex, old records, France, or whatever he preferred, like, well, sex. The results are entertaining.
