Ben Fong-Torres on YouTube (1972)

Posted by s woods on September 17, 2007

Ben Fong-Torres talks about the origins and circulation figures of Rolling Stone magazine, circa 1972. Scintillating stuff. (No idea where this is from–some Danish TV documentary?)

  1. That song at the end! Did I really hear the guitar wolf-whistle after the line about blue-eyed groupies?

  2. Great link! Thanks.

    Thx. This is a back link to my YouTube profile. This and all the other interviews on my channel are from a 4 part Danish documentary on the American counter culture revolution aired in Europe in the early 70′s. Enjoy!

  4. [...] YouTube central, but some of these clips are irresistible. David Aron in the comments box for the Ben Fong-Torres post a few days ago pointed me to another oldie-but-goodie from his YouTube channel: Ralph J. Gleason. [...]

  5. What happened to Ben? YT deleted the video due to violation of service terms. People actually do searches for him & presumably this segment.
