When was this recorded?
I used to spend time there, many years ago, when I was a student at AADA. I really enjoyed talking with Izzy.

It's a recent interview;

Making a rare return to New York, 40 years since he first left, Izzy joins Seth on the steps of 110 MacDougal Street in Greenwich Village - the site of his original Folklore Center - to reminisce about the evocative days in the late 50s and early 60s when, as Bob Dylan recalls, "Folk music glittered like a mound of gold".

A steamy mound, at times.
