DON LETTS INTERVIEW ON WUSB - SPRING 1991

This is a brief but memorable interview with former Big Audio Dynamite member Don Letts on Lister Hewan-Lowe's "Saturday's a Party" reggae program on WUSB that I set up sometime in the spring of 1991. Don was about to release an album from his new group called Screaming Target. There's a little bit of chaos which Lister is somehow consistently able to make work. Don discusses why he had to leave B.A.D. and how the new band is working out so far and gets into a political philosophy back-and-forth with Lister, which is always entertaining. Don was most gracious as always, even when we played the wrong song. To this day, I still listen to that Screaming Target album.
