hi,

Looking for a video clip of an interview where Keith says that thing he trots out about how rock 'n' roll was like the part of the Wizard of Oz when the world shifts from b/w to technicolor.

On another board, I've been pointed in the direction of (thank you, SH) KR saying it in an Elvis documentary, and it's great--and also in the documentary LIFE (thank you, CR) (and also, thanks, Tim).

But I'm 90% sure there are other filmed interviews where Keith says something similar.

Any ideas?

thanks

there are a bunch.
the NY Public Library would be another time.

the phrase is of course kind of a cliche and has been used in many ways, and originates - as i'm sure you know - with the wizard of oz, where black and white turns into technicolor.

Yes -- great call -- thank you! btw, liked your recent post on backstory of Keith on bass. I have nothing to add, but dynamite topic.

In 25x5 iirc.

I think he was referring to Sgt. Peppers when he said that...


Nope nevermind - just remembered he didn't like it.

At 08.45 in the BBC documentary - but it's obvious from the way the interviewer fishes for the line that it's already well known by now:

[www.youtube.com]

He said it in an interview around the time of the Bridges or Licks tour, it was in a made for TV interview where he also said you got the earth , the sun, the air you breath, and you got your Rolling Stones. It was a fantastic interview with all the Stones in it. Have not seen the full version for years.
I believe Keith has said it about 6 times in various interviews over the years

Isn't it also in The Real Buddy Holly Story?
I might be mixing that up with the aforementioned Elvis documentary
He also says it in Under the Influence, of course ....

Here's the bit from Classic Albums: Elvis Presley:

I would love to find this interview. i just remembered he was also talking about the places he loves playing the most, he listed many country's, then said SA was the best.

I guess he said it a lot of times

Keith is very good in recycling

Fist time in B&W interview on a 625-line screen

Lastest one on a 4K HD screen with 3D glasses
