HST confronted by Hells Angels biker

Has anyone posted this before? It's a video of a biker from the Hells Angels confronting Hunter S. Thompson on some show about Thompson's book Hells Angels. It's a pretty cool interview, but it should have been longer. For some reason, they let the Hells Angels guy ride his bike around their seats for 30 seconds and then tell his side of the story. Then when he's done, HST doesn't even get to respond because the show's over? wtf. Still really cool footage, IMO.
PS - Check out the beautiful Joan Baez in the audience at 4:23.

People were basically cheering at the guy that was justifying the biker beating his wife and dog.

No shit! They were laughing like it was okay. That's because it kinda was okay back then. Bill Maher made a good point about the show "The Honeymooners" from the 50's. Ralph would tell his wife every show "One of these days, Alice, BANG ZOOM, straight to the moon". So basically this beloved TV character would tell his wife every week "Shut the fuck up or I'm going to punch you in the fucking face". And then everyone would laugh. Different times for sure.

Amazing find! I've never seen video of him that young. Hell's Angels was his best book, IMO. By far.

The video is from 1967. Wonder if the Angels ever got their keg.
