Wild & Untamed Thing

By Phil South

It's been nearly 30 years since journalist Phil South recorded this glorious, uninhibited look into the mind of this fascinating and enigmatic character, sprawling all over topics as diverse as French rugby tactics, teasing Nastassja Kinski, racism and gender identity, the music press, horse stunt riding, comic book culture, fine art, pre-destination, ghosts, Brian Eno - and of course, his work in theatre, TV and film. O'Brien is notoriously reclusive, despite his brief period in the limelight as presenter of The Crystal Maze, and so this frank and very personal interview is a true rarity. South presents it as an unedited transcript of their July 1985 conversation, with just a few asides added to explain some of the more obscure references, which makes this as close as you're ever likely to get to seeing inside the mind of this unique personalty. It's a pure joy to read, and definitely recommended for any serious Rocky Horror fan.
