Cheers, cheers, cheers. Put any worries about being overly long to rest. It was all pleasure. So many great stories that become a meditation on the way the music was, is and where it might be going. Bill has been at the thick of it all and is something of a hero to this music writer. Thank you so much for this conversation.
Great conversation! I have Bill’s books on Jaco and Pat. A guitarist friend was interviewed for the Pat Martino book.
