Clive James postcards from. Clive James on TV. Clive James chat show. Clive James books...he was talented entertaining funny and people are still watching reading and laughing 30 years later.
The Postcard series hit a high here. Clive's writing is on top form. Funny reading him talking about this piece (and just how boring he found the blues...) in 'Blaze of Obscurity'.
*What happened to the full version, which was fifty minutes long, and included him going to Ed Debevics restaurant and his famous quote: "Chicagoans are so upfront they're out there?"* 😕😕
brilliant show. What is the music used at the beginning at 0.53? It sounds like 1980's Tangerine Dream. But I can not find it. I would like to know,. Much appreciated if I was sent an answer.
What a wonderful way with words he had.

In 2007 a bloke took me for drive south of Chicago. It was like an apocalyptic landscape. I'm told it is far worse now.
Proud to say I live in Chicago since 1995 ❤
Thats weird. Talking about October 87 stock crisis, just as the cameraman films a guy with number 2019...Our crisis began with covid in China!
Great writing!
One of the best, if not the best, of the series.
Seen not heard. An early bird may catch the worm or lose his house in trying?
Looks like an awesome Town

If only the audio had been turned up!
I use Soundfixer, an add-on with the firefox browser
One wonders what he did for a living.
I know Chicago and enjoyed this but… no late Saul Bellow ? Could have easily been set up - Saul and Clive had a mutual friend in Martin Amis.
Great to see Studs Terkel though!
Well done to clive, telling us the lake is flat. lol
What words of wisdom, he should of ran for american president, with such an intellect.
Should have. And whilst we’re at it: would have, could have. And you talk about intellect. Ha!
@@fredcollierfinishingtouche6701 Have run. And you talk of having!
Stfu who cares...
The razor bans are going there now it’s turning it into a very awful place. It’s true. You know. It’s.
