If you can attach first names to all of the above in less than 8.5 seconds, you’re in the right place. The following batch of interviews were re-posted here:

• Paul Nelson (Steven Ward’s interview that really kicked off the whole rockcritics “phenomenon”)
• J.D. Considine
• Martin Popoff
• Richard Meltzer
• Stanley Booth
• Tom Smucker

Speaking of Paul Nelson… More on this later, but see Kevin Avery’s blog, Everything is an Afterthought: The Life and Writings of Paul Nelson, an online companion to Avery’s upcoming Nelson bio. Looks pretty amazing.
