and, yeah, reading is not listening, but anyone interested in Wendy Carlos' circa 1971 views on synthesizers might also be interested to read her entry in the Whole Earth Catalog, here:

John Lurie talking about being interviewed right before performing a song, then performing the song, then writing the song, then recording the song

"I remember that I did talk to John Schaefer for a minute before going on, but it was awkward. Mostly because it is odd to switch gears like that, to go from being interviewed to playing. I remember telling Schaefer that the title of the piece was 'Lawn For People,' and he made an odd face, and I thought he was going to ask me what it meant, but I was rescued because the guys started playing and [I] didn't have to answer. And I remember because it was only one of three or four times we played in the afternoon. I'd just come back from Thailand from shooting Fishing With John with Dennis Hopper. I'd written 'Lawn For People' there after the shoot along with another one of the songs we did that day. It was good, and it was new material, and I remember thinking, 'Good, we really got this down.' And then, as excited as I was to listen to the recording, I was equally disappointed to hear the tape. It's not really fair to blame the engineer if the engineer doesn't know the music. The entrances are missed. There's all this chaos going on, but the cello's supposed to be out front. If the cello is not out front, it's just a rumbling mess. But it's not the engineer's fault because he didn't know this."

takeaways?

Decent interview. I saw the Andy Gill version a few years ago and it was fun, I'd consider this lineup as well
