So sad that he never got to write his memoirs, he was such a great storyteller once he got sober

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

I collected anything by him. Lived the episodic TV from the 1960's

[@fozzz-vb5oj]

I have a pair of his boxers shorts

[@rft2001]

He was a great storyteller in his stoner years as well. Just ask Jack, who was about the only guy who could keep up with Dennis.

[@zoetropeguardian]

Check out the documentary Create (Or Die) on here. It's his story told through his eyes.

Dennis Hopper is simply delightful. RIP Dennis 🙏 Hopper.

[@Smudge4199]

He was so brilliant

[@tallspaniard1]

Dennis is one of only 10 actors that never received the recognition he deserved …. I know deep inside , he appreciated John Wayne bringing him out of the Wilderness 😊 ❤

[@tobiesoftstudio823]

Thank you so much for this great upload. I thoroughly enjoyed this. I miss Dennis very much and enjoy his interviews. Fantastic actor. Thanks again.

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

I collected Hopper heavily recording anything he was in or show he appeared on. I am posting the interviews etc....thanks for watching

[@tobiesoftstudio823]

Looking out for those 😄

[@Junkiescum]

This is amazing. Thank you for posting this

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

Dennis is amazing....I have posted other interviews of him

[@gabriellew6467]

Dennis Hopper, a true raconteur. His reminiscences are colourful and amusing - and interviews with Bob Costas are delightful. Great, thank you for uploading

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

You are hooked....on Bob. It is so disappointing when he had a sub

[@gabriellew6467]

@@ClevelandLiveMusic you are right - I can’t think of an interviewer who is as adaptable to such very different guest. Handles everything with tact and humour and never tries to push his opinions or preferences.

[@aaronlevine2150]

Wow This was incredible. Such a great show. Didn't watch as often as Letterman because I had to sleep at some point or was otherwise occupied. Late teens early twenties. But every time I watched I remember marveling at how versed Bob was and asked the good questions. So up on every guest. Took it for granted we would always have a show like this.Sigh. But this one is really a classic! Dennis was such a good interview. Riveting Can't wait for Part 2. Want to hear about Easy Rider, Apocalypse Now, Colors, Hoosiers, drugs, the 60s, Blue Velvet, David Lynch, Rivers Edge. I guess there needs to be a Part 3-5 also! Thanks for posting

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

I am struggling to find part 2 sadly! I have literally 5000 to 8000 video tapes of TV

[@aaronlevine2150]

@@ClevelandLiveMusicWell, I am very grateful for whatever you post😊I subscribed after seeing this one as I'm sure we have similar tastes. There are 2 clips I looked at on KZbin right after this that seemed to be from the same hour. One he talks about Blue Velvet and the other Brando/ Apocalypse Now. D. H. seems to be wearing the same tie and Bob is interviewing so I think it's like maybe 9 minutes of Part 2 in total

[@aaronlevine2150]

Oops I'm wrong The Dennis Hopper/ Bob Costas segment about Brando he has a different tie on. Must be from a separate interview

[@ksk5664]

Wow, Dennis tells terrific stores. Love that John Wayne called him a Pinko. LOL He probably didn't think it was funny at the time...but funny as heck now.

[@geneobrien8907]

Too bad Wayne didn't live to see Hopper become a George W. Bush supporting conservative!

[@josephcallahan1664]

Costa does some great inteviews.

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

The best IMO

[@ronaldcrenfro4637]

John Wayne, Lived on a Minesweeper, rode to work in a Helicopter, and carried a 45,

[@Mark_Ocain]

"He was one talented f*ck! " LOL

[@TTM9691]

Damn, any chance of getting part 2 uploaded? (I know you uploaded this part two years ago so maybe you don't have it) Great interview

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

Sadly I missed it

[@ARTPAINTING101]

Where is part 2?

Sadly have not found that tape to digitize yet. Over 8000 to go

@@ClevelandLiveMusic ok thanks.. I appreciate the work you've done posting these.

[@ClevelandLiveMusic]

Thanks Kate.....Hopper is a favorite of mine. I have a few other posts of interviews with him posted.....just not on Later (the best interview series ever IMO)

[@Spooky_515]

Seeing Hopper in ‘90 reminds me I was born in the wrong era. Take me back to when there was still enough freedom to speak your mind and actually feel alive. The era we are in now is monotonic and numb. Everyone has to think the same, act the same and look the same. Boring

[@hurrytoworry]

I agree 100%. We will never have people like this again as they are products of their environment, which no longer exists. Seeing legends, free people like Hopper pass away, people of his era slowly dissapear knowing there is no one to really replace them is heartbreaking. I wish I got to experience it.

[@rft2001]

Yes, today, everything is so sanitized. You couldn't have people as real as Jack, Dennis, Marlon, James Dean, etc. The almost crucified poor Johnny Depp, so I can only imagine what they'd have done with those guys.

[@braderlon16]

Where’s the “He’s a fag!” Part? Dean telling Hopper about Hudson

[@braderlon16]

Found it

[@morgantylerv9406]

It's in the video right before this one, I think it even has PART 1. Dennis Hopper was a very likeable actor & I thought he was A very good actor too.

[@mikejohnson2638]

lol james dean was an even a worse actor than monroe

[@jimmymoz9140]

@mikejohnson2638 What an ego you have. James Dean was an amazing actor and if you ask any actor they will say the same thing. You're not an actor and you're blind with jealous rage likely because you have no talent.
