Thor 8,516 Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Jon Burlingame? Nice interview. A vivid, 58-year-old Williams. That_Bloke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMusicMaestro 35 Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 JW refers to a John / Jon at UCLA. I assume that the interviewer is Jon Burlingame. thx99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall him referring to a "John/Jon at UCLA". I think the only reference to UCLA was about him (Williams) being a piano student "out here at UCLA", implying that the interviewer was not in the LA area. And some of his answers sound like they're aimed at a less-informed interviewer (and audience), not to someone who was inherently knowledgeable. Granted, this could be an early (first?) interview by Burlingame so maybe the familiarity was not quite there yet. I'm in the "not Burlingame" camp. UPDATE: I FB messaged Burlingame and he says it wasn't him. So the mystery remains... Marian Schedenig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 8,516 Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Hmmm...back to scratch, then. Not that it's important or anything, but one wonders. What's "Reelin' in the Years" to begin with? A TV programme on some channel? (and if any of you ask me to "google it!", I'll punch you in the face). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Reelin' in the Years" seems to be a repository for old video/film footage but not the source of the footage to begin with. So they likely had nothing to do with the original interview. However, it might be worth emailing them and asking for more information about the interview. Thor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entertainment Tonight still hold the rights to all of their old interviews. They wouldn't sublicense them out like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TownerFan 5,276 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I may be wrong, but this was probably done as a TV interview with some local Boston station. thx99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right, @TownerFan. I got the vibe that the interviewer was somewhere other than the LA area, based on some of the comments Williams made ("out here at UCLA", for example).
