A gem! Thanks for this outstanding recording of a legend. I could listen to him talk forever and I think he would've gladly obliged.

It’s so cool that this recording exists, thanks for sharing. I read Basketball Diaries for the first time around 2010ish, always wanted to know more about his basketball career and guys he played against.
