Candid and informative video interview with Roky Erickson conducted by Will Sheff, detailing Erickson's musical history and the recording of the new album 'True Love Cast Out All Evil,' in stores April 20th
Does anyone know what book Roky's talking about in response to the first question? I tried searching for 'The Striped Dragon' a few different ways and wasn't able to come up with anything.
roky- i love you. LOVE.YOU.
and anyone who doesnt know, his youngest brother, Sumner Erickson, is the man who got roky out of his entangles poverty stricken prison-like mess ans sacrificed everything to help his brother to regain wellness. without sumner i do not think we would have heard anything from roky still since 1985.
sumner- you are my hero. and you saved my other hero.
eurghh correction...
Cool... Roky Ericson interviewed by John Lennon.
They both are trully the real heroes of rock'n roll. Glad he's still around and he's better than ever.
Bought my first albums of Roky 20 or 30 years ago and finally gonna see him alive in no less than two days from now.
Btw anybody ever heard that great track he recorded with Mogwai, so beautyfull, it makes a grown man cry

I saw Roky last night in Baltimore. GREAT SHOW! Roky's voice sounded like 1980 and his band was spot on. Not sure who they were though...but they were great.
A couple of years ago I thought that the fabulous Mr Erickson was virtually lost to the world. To find him still alive and most likely as well as any of us can be is fabulous. Many thanks to the beautiful people who never forgot Roky and made sure that his wonderful voice is still heard.
I hate this okkervil river shit with roky... i saw him a few years ago at continental club in houston that group of guys with him were great...these guys are messing up everything...
i went to the webster hall show last night, total fucking shit, i think okkervil river could do a whole lot better for themselves promoting their own material, rather than the scruffy what have you's of some burnt out hippy. bird of youth was excellent, definitely stole the show.
