Here's an interesting interview with Ginsberg I found earlier this month in which he discusses Buk: Interviewer: "Right, he [Buk] wouldn't come to Naropa as I remember" Ginsberg: "No, we invited him [to give reading at Naropa in Boulder, CO]...He was such grumpy old man. Interviewer: "Very grumpy, and wasn't very kind to many of the Beat writers. Ginsberg: "He was to me, in person at any rate. I think earlier, before he got cured, his brothers would say, i.e. before he got much richer than me or any of the Beat writers, because he was very famous in Italy and Germany, and they made movies of his work. Before that, he was wondering why we were so popular and why he was not. And therefore, he was a little bit grumpy about it. But he did meet Neal Cassady and admired him and wrote a very nice story about him. Interviewer: Yeah. G: "And then we worked together; I meant well, at any rate. I wasn't entirely an evil creep."
