Missed that one, but it was quite a trend around that kind of time - read
Rick Wakeman's autobiography, "Grumpy Old Rock Star" on Audible and Bob had
to limit himself to four questions because Wakeman had been in the bar while
they had a recording delay.  Even then, with Wakeman being given the
questions beforehand, he answered them in the wrong order and they had to
edit it. 

Best wishes.

That reminds me, did you ever see him being interviewed on "The Old Grey 
Whistle Test" by whispering Bob?
