For more information, including a letter to the New Yorker signed by most of the people that were interviewed, please see here:

Alternatively, straight from the horse's mouth:
Great community, by the way!
Thanks for dropping in with this, I had read the article but was not aware of the follow up.
I always thought John was an interesting character and am glad to hear that the portrayal in that article was bogus.
Correct on both counts, Horseleech! The portrayal was bogus and damaging, and Lurie is a fascinating individual.

Still listen to No Pain for Cakes and was a time I could recite Down By Law.
I owe a big thanks to Jarmusch's films for introducing first Lurie, then his music, into my life (Screamin Jay Hawkins, too).
You're welcome, soup. Loved the Dennis Hopper story!
Is this a subliminal message, herbacios tweed?!
Can you make that happen?
Thanks for explaining, bassie! I can't make Salma happen, but....
Bring him!!!!!!
Salma Hayek, love John
Changed mine too. All the money - gone.
Thanks Miss Crees for turning them in a nicer direction
Off The Wall or Thriller?
War or Mandrill?
In the house - shoes on or off?
Jameson or El Dorado?
Top or bottom?
Shut 'em Down - OG or remix?
Summer Breeze - Isleys or Main Ingredient?
Sunny - OG or JBrown /Dee Felice Trio?
I have no idea what you are talking about. took me an hour to figure out how to post on here. and i just started a twitter account that also has me boggled - so go easy
miss bassie is asking which records you prefer and why...just questions we tend to ask new members for no good reason other than tradition.
