Poly Styrene Interviewed by John Robb in 2009

John Robb has just posted a 50 minute video interview with Poly Styrene in 2009 on Louder Than War. The video is in two parts and Poly ranges from her childhood to the gig at The Roundhouse in 2008.

It's lovely to hear Poly chatting away about being a hippy before being a punk, being friends with John Lydon at the break-up of the Sex Pistols, the Krishna movement, wearing Biba clothes and talking about her beliefs. The interview is punctuated with laughter and Poly's thoughtful humour. It made me smile and reminisce.

Put aside some time to watch it. Click here.

And here's a great photo of Poly back in the day from Spex Cliche on Facebook...
