On Saturday 16th April 2005 Australia's ABC (the real one :-) broadcast
a very rare interview with Olivia Harrison.

 Unmissable.

You can listen to it again by going to:

 http://www.abc.net.au/rn/music/mshow/> 

and selecting the first hour of the 16th April programme.  (It's the
first substantive item).

Of course it's interesting - personally I can't recall any previous
interview of substance.

I listen to this show regularly and have a high opinion of the presenter
(Andrew Ford).  Normally he's well prepared, coherent and articulate.
In this interview he seems unprepared, and stumbles over details.

I strongly suspect that it's because he's freaked at the Beatle
connection.  And who'd blame him for that!!

Also interesting is that it was recorded some time ago... so they didn't
even elect to "overdub" his parts to tidy up the interview.

Cynically, I'll add that in the end the ABC (Australia's publicly funded
broadcaster) ran a promotion for a very expensive book from Genesis -
money could not buy that air time!
