Notes (from Bootlegger):
All the interviews on this DVD are average in appearance but they very clear and are worth a watch, Especially the "One To One" interview...Contains a few minor visual dropouts due to the tape sources used, But otherwise this disc contains some great interview footage from 1989-1990.
