Question: Who are some of your favorite musical artists, and any amazing live shows you've seen come to mind?
GP: The last live show Ive seen was Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. And theyre still one of my favorites, you know the old stand-bys. I was a big Motown guy for a long time, being from that part of the country, and that sort of morphed into Jimmy Hendrix, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Led Zepplin, those kind of guys. And being here in Texas you cant help but hear country music here and there. Everybody takes a different path in life and about three years ago I started listening to a Patsy Cline album and it just blew me away. I just am still amazed by her voice, and the guys and my family say jeez, are we going to listen to that again? So thats the newest one, and another one: Terri Clark. Somebody gave me a CD by her, a country gal, and I love it. Its really great. So I listen to that, and everything else is sort of foreign. Its Egyptian, Usef, hes an Egyptian guy, or Turkish music. That kind of thing. So pretty strange, a lot of different things.
What about any of Stephen Jacksons?
Jack used to try to give me some of his tapes, but, first of all I couldnt even understand what was going on, and some of them you could even dance to, but once I started hearing what they were saying and everything I just gave them back.
