    Henry has deep passion and gets the big picture. I totally understand sitting on his old house porch with headphones at 3AM 31 years later.

    He's right, he's absolutely right.

    I think I'd be pretty freaked out to find Henry Rollins on my porch at 3AM, but I might invite him in :)

    He makes perfect sense. Listening to music is not a passive experience for me. I focus into it, and analyze it. KI would love to listen with Henry.

    I completely agree with Henry on this point! Apart from my 23 year old son & only with certain records , my 'wing man' has always been my oldest & best friend whom I have known since we met at Primary school ( 7 years old ) & we are now both the same age as Henry!

    Well said. And I agree with him quite a bit. I have two people I genuinely love listening to records with. A friend I've known since high school, and my brother-in-law. Those two can enhance the listening experience when putting a record on. I look forward to each opportunity I get to do this with them. I do enjoy listening to record with my wife when she picks them, because it's a joy to see the music take her back to a different time.

    I never listened to vinyl with anyone else as I found you really didn't listen as the person(s) wouldn't shut up etc... and turned the vinyl into background noise. When I listen alone I don't have that problem but it has been 38 years since I last listened to vinyl too.

    JUST FOUND A SERIES OF HENRY ROLLINS SHORT INTERVIEW SEGMENTS ON UA-cam. THIS ONE'S PRETTY GOOD.
    It seems Henry is quite the polarizing figure with many people. Some love him and some are really put off by him. As far as his stint with Black Flag, I've got to say he's my third favorite singer of the four, behind Keith Morris and Ron Reyes. However I certainly don't agree with Tad Kepley in American Hardcore book. "...I first heard them with Dez (Cadena) singing. Rollins could never compare. He was a joke and a poseur---it was Greg Ginn's band to begin with. Greg Ginn was Black Flag while Henry Rollins is the Details magazine idea of what a rebel should be. And he always was. He always seemed insecure and full of himself, so I was never a huge fan of them during that era." I only saw Henry with Black Flag once here in New York City and he was tremendous, giving 110% that night. Totally into it and a night I will never forget.
    His advice on listening to music is spot on I think. How many times have you listened to an album or CD with someone and instead of listening in silence, the other wants to talk. Can't we just listen to a whole track without talking? Is that possible?

    I used to do this in high school with a friend, but it was really for the purpose of copying CDs to tapes. You have to listen to it from start to finish, plus I'd want to make sure I liked it enough to have my own copy.
