With everyone looking for Pulp news, interviews and comments at the moment, it feels the right time to throw this out.
As some of you will know, I had the pleasure of having an in depth interview with Russell for a couple of hours back in 2015, ostensibly to promote his book.
It was a good interview. Russell was very chatty and very open.
Although I prepared for it pretty well, actually turning the thing into an article just never happened. Although I do have the full transcripts. And the first page or so of an attempted article.
So, does anyone want to take up the mantle and pull an article (or two?) together from it? It was meant to be published via God Is In The TV Zine which would, I imagine, still take a finished cut. If not, it's up for grabs.
Reply on here or send me a private message if you'd fancy giving it a go and think you could turn something around in something less than eight years.
Ta!

I write for my uni's student newspaper and have done a couple of other online magazine things, so if you're willing, I'd be more than happy to give it a go!
Got to say I'd be much more interested in reading the full transcripts than seeing bits of it turned into an article. But at this point I'll take anything!

Worth noting that Freak Out The Squares appears to be out of print. All I can find online is one "bargain" copy on Oxfam for £25 and one on eBay for £100.
So maybe we all did our bit in the end to sponsor Mr Senior's efforts as much as possible!
You can get a Kindle version for £10.99 on Amazon, although to be fair, Kindles aren't proper books.
Ah yeah, I bought both to be sure though. And a kindle version is better than nothing right? Further print runs should have happened and a paperback. And, whilst I am dreaming, an audio book with the man himself...
Zurdta and Lipglossed - do you want to PM me your email addresses?
Essentially there's two articles in all of this, I think. There's a lot of pre-fame Pulp, a lot of fame-Pulp and also a fair bit on the (then) recent reunion. I'd be happy to let you split it.
I'll prepare everything I've got and send it over to you both when you let me know how to get it to you.
