Interview with the Vampire Episode 3
Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire episode 3, “Is My Very Nature That of A Devil,” is a turning point in a series about transformation.

The sound spread chord clusters and hot licks across the country, revelatory to listeners and revolutionary in its freedom.
