I did this interview as a world exclusive offered to me by Bono - which was for reasons I disclose in this podcast was a shock to me - and during which the talked me through the upcoming U2 album, Zooropa. This clip has Bono singing the praises of Johnny Cash, telling the surreal tale of the time Cash was almost killed by an Emu and finally playing for me the staggering brilliant U2/Johnny Cash collaboration The Wanderer - a title I tell him I think the song should be called, and it was. This is a slice of U2 and rock 'n' roll history.
