Talking of synchronicities, before I came across this new film of yours, John, I was re-reading this morning Sinclair's essay in London: A City of Disappearances where he walks with Moore from Hackney to Mortlake. Unfortunately, I was unaware of the exhibition itself until it was too late!
+C Geoffrey Taylor there's still one day left Carl - finishes on Sunday
Read Jerusalem by Mr Moore. Its a wonderful and fantastical tome, which takes you on a superb journey. I just couldn't put it down 👌 chefs kiss 💋 😘 x
Moore and Sinclair, two geezers who have managed to encapsulate the late night pub riff into a scholarly endeavour. Thanks for posting John.
+Borderlands nicely put - thanks Borderlands
i had to watch it a second time and it just confused me even more
I've watched it four times and gleaned new information every time. What were those murmurings Iain Sinclair heard at St.Anne's, Limehouse.? Did two books really cross contaminate under Alan's roof? Why didn't I hear about the talk?
this chat was arranged just for the video. I think the evening event in Lambeth sold out really quickly - there were a lot of Alan Moore's fans there. Iain is doing quite a lot of Last London talks at the moment www.iainsinclair.org.uk/events/
Who've managed to encapsulate pretentious bollocks
I just noticed that this was from five years ago but I only just came across it in 2023. It is dear to my heart to see two fellows discussing art in a put together gallery much as you would’ve seen or heard of discussion in the pub. I love that London is theirs. The financiers certainly don’t have the same kind of care. My father, Harold Arthur Drury was a Flâneur of London during the 40s and 50s and 60s. He left in 1974 but told me all about every inch of the city and its characters and pubs. I appreciate John’s videos because they are a continuation for me to listen to the discussions of thelove for that city.
One of the things I really appreciate about both Moore and Sinclair is their deep connection to living geography. I remember Moore wrote a really great forward to the late great Harvey Pekar's book about the history of his own Cleveland Ohio.
Quite agree Ross - I'll have to look up that Harvey Pekar book
Very happy to see a casual chat between these two literary giants.
3 legends in a room together,what a moment to capture on film .Truly amazing moment to document.Thank you John Rogers this was amazing!
Iain Sinclair and Alan Moore in a room together, who the hell disliked this?
Grant Morrison's three fans.
Well it was nice hearing them talk about stuff.
I only understand fragments of what they are saying but its just so relaxing to listen to.
very intersting - one of those talks where, if you didn't record it, you'd have wished to be a fly on the wall! thanks very much for this one 😊
Wonderful gentlemen discussing their city and work. I love their books.
Wonderful of you to bring these two rascals back together John! It would've been great to get artist Eddie Campbell in on this too, but that probably would be tough with him living all the way down in Australia.
it was a really wonderful occasion to witness and capture
I visited today and may return tomorrow. There's some evocative stuff there for the seasoned reader of Sinclair. This is a first-rate conversation you got down, thanks.
It's such a treasure trove for readers of Iain Sinclair - particularly the room seen in the second half of this video
Thanks for this. Two absolute legends.
Very lovely description of Jerusalem. Glad I have it on my shelf waiting tackling one day.
I'm half way through Alan Moore's Jerusalem just the most amazing narrative I have ever experienced .....
I really need to read it
@@JohnRogersWalks yes you do...😋
As a fellow Lovecraft reader I appreciate how, amongst many of their other respective talents, Moore and Sinclair have woven Lovecraftian elements into their works, Moore most impressively with Providence and Sinclair in Suicide Bridge, and elsewhere. Machen and Hodgson too, are sprinkled throughout their stuff.
Currently reading Iain Sinclair's wonderful American Smoke. On the chapter where he visits Kerouac's grave in Lowell. He's told the anecdote of Johnny Depp buying Kerouac's old raincoat.
The crow is an image which often occurs in my life through artists I admire, Ted Hughes of course, David Sylvian, 'Rain Tree Crow' and my favourite Dickens is 'Barnaby Rudge' with Grip his pet crow or raven...very interesting. Very interesting video too.
mind blown you have gone above and beyond
such good stuff john keep it up
that's really appreciated John - many thanks
I recently found and subbed your channel. Somehow, I don’t think I’m going to be disappointed. Great stuff 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing this John. Fantastic stuff!
thanks Mike
My favourite bit is when Alan uses the word 'immanent' and Iain thinks he means 'imminent' and Alan just agrees and changes the subject... (about six and a half minutes in)
this is fantastic. Must have been hard John: just filming and not joining in a conversation like that :-)
it was a brilliant thing to witness Mark
'kin 'ell, what a conversation.
Nice, I work in tower hamlets, walked down that street many times, didn't even know there was a gallery there, gonna check it out this weekend, Thanks :)
I had an interesting stroll after this shoot heading west behind the mosque - might return for a more thorough wander - lots of memories from my City Poly years
Very enjoyable .I am looking forward to hearing Iain at WIgtown Book Festival next weekend.
Thanks for watching - have a great time at the festival
Very interesting, really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.
thanks Darrell
muito obrigado pelo seu trabalho John...
and thank you for your support robson
Tienes relación con Roberto Firmino?
Two gentlemen, ordinary in their extraordinariness. I'm nodding in agreement, then realising I haven't managed to dip more than a toe into what they're on about.

That's a real illustration by a real, genuine artist-type, me boyo.
Extraordinary conversation sympathetically captured - have read neither of these authors and although I have one eye on what Johnny Shitcock says here - am inclined to do a bit of enjoyable catching up on their work......
many thanks - really interesting to hear how Lud Heat influenced Alan's work - Peter Ackroyd also drew heavily on it as well - fascinating book
As Mr Shitcock only comments when Iain Sinclair is the subject, I assume it's one of the protagonists sending themselves up.
Yeah, Peter Ackroyds biographic of William Blake (called "Blake") is a magic read!
(also "The Plato Papers" is ace)
- I've yet to read any of Mr Sinclairs' books : Any suggestions as to where best to start?
Thank you.
This is excellent stuff, thank you!
Thanks for watching - have a look at the video of the reading they did later that evening
Fascinating
Really interesting John. I will try and visit Gallery 46.
+John P Lynch thanks John - ends Sunday 17th
Who is this "brian" guy? - the author who wrote about Blake, lambeth etc which Moore admits iit somehow bled into his Jeruusalem book? Thanks
Brian Catling
@@JohnRogersWalks Thank you, I did eventually find it out after going down the rabbit hole- which was a worthwhile pursuit as it has led to me ordering a few books and deepening my future experiences in London
a couple of old spielers, truth lies somewhere between the lavatory door & your imagination_
Iain, how could he not be a cannibal chef?
Hmmm. I suppose they've both namedropped Hannibal Lecter in their work. Intriguing...
I can't stand interviews with the background noise of people chatting.
I'm not to keen on Moore . He seems to be well entrenched into the matrix . Anyone accusing people of being racist for standing up for their indigenous culture needs to be viewed with some suspicion . Change agents come in all guises .
He's an arsehole. Twenty five years ago I absolutely loved London, look at the fucking place now.
I wish Alan didn't talk in that annoying uprising end of sentences, sounds like an Australian
I wish you didn't talk.
He's a leftist, they all do that.
Pretentious ponces load of old shit.
Grant Morrison >>>> Alan Moore
Grant himself knows that isn't true.
