So the 'real' world asserts itself in the form of an impending parking ticket, lol. I loved Crass's stuff when I was 15, now I'm 55 and find myself still on the same, though different, wavelength. Thank you Penny Rimbaud, you've been a friend to my soul all my life x

If this video had ten million views, the world would be a better place.

Personally I was put off by the smug grin on the interviewers face and he didnt know how to engage a conversation with Penny. I met Penny a couple of times and I have to say he is a great conversationalists and very easy to approach and talk with.

I LOVE YOUR SPIRIT SO MUCH, JERRY!!! Your brilliance is just inspiring and so much appreciated (over the decades!!!). 💖 Thank you for your art and all you share to remind us that we are more than our currency. Furthermore, your writing is phenomenal. I’ve purchased and passed on SO many copies of Shibboleth. 💖 Your Twitter posts helped me through a time which was strictly shit. Thank you!!! 💕

Mr. Rimbaud looks like he’d rather be elsewhere at the beginning.

“U don’t judge by other people’s judgement .......it’s wot u give to the world”

All interviews with anarchists should be awkward, except the ones that aren’t.

That ending was a poetic intrusion & proof of concept

On the leaflet enclosed in the Small Wonder version of Feeding Of The 5000,it said something about phoning Rough Trade up to talk to Crass,so that's what I did in early 1982 - the guy took my phone number and said he'd pass it on to Crass(Rough Trade were distributing Crass Records I think)and I thought, "Yeah,I bet you pass it on hahaha" Back then,I used to go out and get drunk on a Thursday and when I got back from the pub, my Dad was still awake(my first surprise) he then picked up a note he had placed near the telephone for me and began to read it, "Penny from Crass rang earlier to let you know that they're playing Ferryhill 101 Club on 30th April 1982" Picture this? I'm completely pissed and I'm trying to get my head around the fact that my Dad had just spoken to Penny Rimbaud from Crass - my mind wouldn't compute what I was hearing! I thought he must have gone through my record collection to play a prank on me,then I thought,why the fuck would he do that? Anyway,I found out he was telling the truth,when the tour dates came out (yes I went to the Ferryhill gig) It's not an everyday event,when your 55yo Dad has a chat with Penny Rimbaud! Cheers Penny,for choosing to ring,when I was out on the piss!

Amazing ending

i loved crass ,i was 15 and got fully into the anarcho punk scene gigs making music , i dont believe in politics , but the powers that should not be have set the world on a tyranical future, i think for myself always have,

Penny Rimbaud is getting dangerously close to becoming the Alan Partridge of anarcho-punk here.

The band that lived and meant it....Still as relevant as ever.

The reluctant messiah. This isn't TV. His body language may not be perfect. He may not have delivered the correct coloured pearls of wisdom you expected. Find your own knowledge.

Great video I love The Clash 👍

fuck ! Pen , you missed a trick there .. CRASS bread.. 'pay no more than 45p' a loaf with political , art wrappers we can then stick on the fridge with a CRASS fridge magnet.... please do it and we can get Waitrose to deliver it...there might even be a way using a metal stencil you put in with bread when you toast it so it makes the CRASS symbol on the toast !! ... Pen , shall we go on Dragon's Den with this ?...just for some anarcho fun ?

Whole interview no laughs no ģiggles just him born with a silver spoon in his mouth yabling on about his ego and a loaf of bread to a boring man with a lisp yawn yawn 🥱 😴. Violet from poison girls was smart and fun and had energy in abundance. R.I.P. Vi. ❤x

“ money or fame or things ( houses)

Bloody parking wardens, a bred nemesis!

From philosophy to a parking ticket 😃

Damn that was an awkward interview

whats your definition of work , "play" ... he hits it right on the head. :-)

A upper middle class man who used a working class man to preform a social experiment, wow how original

Feeding of the 5000 bread reference, wot about the fish?

Tom Hodgkinson might be the worst interviewer of all time. wow.

To be fair he looks after that big hoose by Imself

Fuckinell! So pretentious but kinda compelling.

Strewth... Imagine the anxiety of making him a sandwich with Kingsmill 50/50 Saved by the traffic warden..

I value crass.. but yeh.. I think Penny's outlook as expressed here.. is seriously in denial of some fundamental realities. Writing a song and baking a loaf of bread could have some similarities from an extremely reductionist point of view, but they are fundamentally different. Especially if you labor to produce something of value.. the needs and intent are highly discriminate. Work entails sacrifice.. play does not.

Does he still walk around naked?....open door policy at his house?....with the covid out there

bad body language from Penny - arms folded - like he's not interested

That interview er is annoying

Cannot look the person he's talking to in the eye. Body language is all wrapped up and defensive. Terrible interview. Pretentious guff.
