has the entire shooting script, as well as The Rolling Stone article from 10/13/1970, On Route 66 - Filming Two-Lane Blacktop http://www.cinetropic.com/blacktop/stone.html Title: Re: Dennis two lane blacktop interview Post by: hypehat on June 09, 2011, 09:05:47 AM Wasn't this interview taken at the point where Dennis could have been the star and frontman of the group? 2 out of the 3 songs they performed were sung by him. One his recent solo single, to boot. Dennis being the frontman would have been borderline insane as the 70's wore on.... I'm not sure why he didn't seize the moment when he injured his hand and thus couldn't play drums.

Maybe not though. :hat Title: Re: Dennis two lane blacktop interview Post by: Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again on June 10, 2011, 06:37:34 PM Very lovely:

When he sang a few numbers at 1970 and 71 shows he often asked for near darkness or didn't emote properly or seemed ill at ease-he wasn't a natural frontman-though he sure had talent
Title: Re: Dennis two lane blacktop interview Post by: DJ M on June 12, 2011, 08:38:10 PM The Criterion Collection's 2-DVD version is a "must buy" for any DW fan. The movie itself has never looked better, and there is a wealth of extras, including extensive interviews w/ James Taylor and the director Monte Hellman.
