[@jimchorley]

Lovely to see and hear Kevin smiling, laughing and enjoying himself... He is one of our finest...

[@KarlHainer]

A wonderful vocal talent & bollocks of steel.

'On a night when flowers didn't suit my shoes...' a gem of a lyric!

[@jojojones2714]

good to see you mate

[@2tonefootage330]

I missed this Interview this morning so thanks for the video :)

[@markwarning4097]

Yay, Kevin! A great talent !

[@NickHope]

He honestly feels it's the best thing he's done? In that case it must be the greatest album in the history of music.

[@3storiesUp]

It is quite beautiful alright Nick ..

[@lindastanley229]

I love Kevin

[@gene2049]

Kevin is so cool and talented

[@eightiesmusic1984]

No need to ask about the clothes and then try to make out it is a compliment. Kevin's "not really" when asked if he wants to talk them through the outfit says it all. A bona fide musical genius with integrity and the first question is about what he is wearing. Ridiculous.

[@jonstern7511]

Not necessarily. Kevin had said the clothes always came first, before creating the music! I thought it was a good interview!

@@jonstern7511 The interviewers did not know that unless they were bona fide Dexy's fans, which let's face it is unlikely.

@@eightiesmusic1984 I would have replied 5 years ago but only just seen it now. Anyway no problem. I thought they handled it well and fortunately left the "Eileen" mention till the end or they could have faced the wrath of Rowland (though actually he's mellowed these days!) 😉😂

[@eightiesmusic1984]

@@jonstern7511 Indeed. I saw him on GMB at the unearthly hour of not long after 6am one day in September being interviewed about their 2022 tour. He was full of good cheer and it made my day. I see from your channel you have a few clips related to Grenfell. I used to work ten minutes away in the 1990s and 2000s and knew the Lancaster West estate and the surrounding area reasonably well. I would not have believed then that such a dreadful and entirely avoidable catastrophe could have happened seventeen years after I left London ( 2001). The fortitude and dignity of the residents in their campaign for justice is remarkable. The surrounding area is an underappreciated area of London but I could see the sense of community in the area all of the time I worked there.

[@DerekLyons]

Really love Dexy's !

[@kianucollis3929]

genius. no question. underrated perhaps...but listen to Old and tell me different....

[@3storiesUp]

Love Kevin.

[@GuyFawkes15]

A lot more than 26 members over the years.

[@Mike-ir9fx]

Kevin is god♥️

[@Blooobirds27]

His first two albums were awesome and(although nothing alike) almost in the same league as PiL's frst two albums, To do better than them (first two albums) takes some doing . I love Kevin and, I love John Lydon but I think both of their voices are not what they were unfortunately- but by fuck they helped my make my life better.

[@rdvbailey5990]

You honestly think it's the best work that you've done so far? Come on

[@juniperchase222]

These two are painful to watch. So condescending.

[@MrGraham137]

Completely dire interview with a man of little talent...........

[@3storiesUp]

And I'd wager you're an expert on both ....

[@MrGraham137]

It's an opinion.....

[@theonlyantony]

Please post a link to, at very least, YOUR early work. Or did it have too many carbs again and a bad day at Matalan or another 'career's' equivalent?

[@Mike-ir9fx]

Graham are you serious? Have you done better?
