A favorite of mine. Great interviewer - did nice jobs with both Dylan and the Stones....

Oh very sad.

His intereview with the Stones in New Orleans was great.

Rest in Peace

That was the first thing I thought of too, Cindy - Ed & Mick dancing in that parade!

Bummer. R.I.P., Ed.

Yes, I just heard the news. He did some great interviews over the years and was one of my favorites. I believe he interviewed the Stones twice, once during Voodoo and can someone help me on the other? Will be missed, his manerisms we're his trademark along with a great ability to get people to open up.

I just heard. That's very sad.

sad...nice guy.... rip!

oh man....this is sad. Without a doubt some of my favorite interviews of all time have been by Ed Bradley. I remember the Charlie Watts interview in which I was shocked to learn of Charlie's heroin addiction, and I remember the Dylan interview in November 2004 in which Dylan spoke of his deal with fate....that he knew at an early age he was going to be one of the greatest song writers of all time. Powerful stuff.....I also thought it was cool that a 60 minute correspondent would sport an earring.

I loved the Johnny Cash interview; he and Ed got along great..like
best buddies..

A class act...his jazz radio shows were fantastic...what a cool gentleman...RIP

RIP Ed.

Very sad to hear. Rest in peace Ed.

Does anyone have copies of his interviews with the Stones?

sorry to here this. Ed bradley was a deep man.

Really, that's amazing. I bet Mick would be happy to know that.

That would be my favorite as well. I remember they ran it again during the start of the LICKS tour. I wasn't fired up to see the Stones again. In fact, I was going to skip the LICKS tour. But after seeing that interview I immediately went to Ticketmaster.

I loved that Stones in New Orleans interview, and yes, I too thought of his dancing down the street with Mick! I think Mick was DANCING, Ed was laughing and trying to keep up. Rest in peace, Ed, you were a true gentleman, classy and loved by all.

RIP Ed
A true Gentleman

Budweiser isn't really beer.

Ed Bradley = Class Act.

A true professional...Sad, Sad, Sad.

Count the blessings we still have 4 somewhat healthy Stones!

"ad placement"

His 60 minutes of fame are over.

RIP

Great work Ed...Angels with you.

A very cool dude and very sad news. No one has yet mentioned his U2/Bono interview which didn't run that long ago (some of it was also shot in Villefranche were the U2 boys live part time and of course is the location of the famous "EXILE" house). I also remember when they reran the STONES NEW ORLEANS piece a few years later it was a lot longer version then the original 60 minutes one (it might have been on a short lived CBS cable channel called "CBS People" - I believe that was the name). His DYLAN piece was also very interesting - probably got more out of Bob than anybody else could. I noticed E B's voice was sounding kinda weak this last few months on 60 minutes so it sounded like SOMETHING was going on with his health. We're losing all the great ones, a man who did his job very well and never lost his integrity, something to be proud of IMHO...RIP - Mr ED BRADLEY.

where can we find the MJ interview in New Orleans?

agree with that. We didnt see much of his work over here but his interviews with Dylan and the Stones were most enjoyable.

Did you ever see the footage of him in a club singing "60 Minute Man?"

It was on a show about the show, or a profile of him--I can't recall.

Funny stuff.

(Of course, everyone knows the real rocker on that show is Andy Rooney.)
