Lou's tour to support "The Bells" started in Europe in March and moved on to North America in mid - April. By the end of May, Lou was on the east coast and looking forward to a short residency at the Bottom Line in early June. On 27th May he appeared on New York's WPIX FM "Radio Radio" show with DJs Dan Neer and John Ogle to shoot the bull and talk about the upcoming shows. While he was there he played a recording of the previous evening's show in Toronto, and took some (hilarious) on-air phone calls. I think that this is Lou at his very best.....(but he frustratingly talks about his favourite pinball games all the way through "Street Hassle") 

An OUTSTANDING version of "Leave Me Alone".
