Thanks for these EXCELLENT memories, To Mr Hornsby ,Always have admired your Preformances ❤ John Barnett revisited September 26 2024 ❤❤❤California Love to All ❤❤
Bruce Hornsby is a very down-to-earth humble is a man of many hats but the sin in the same time he's a real good man he is like a genius what a wonderful man and I'll never forget the time I met him at Needham Mass and he gave me his autograph
My very first concert ever, September 1988, Great Woods, Mansfield, MA. 30+ years and hundreds of concerts later, still my favorite show. Most incredible piano player I’ve ever seen. I miss the Range, for sure….and would be the first in line for a reunion.
So glad I found this interview with Bruce Hornsby, great stories about his rich life, very talented singer & song writer, love his piano playing !! Thanks so much for posting this Paul !!
Wow. What a great interview. So worth the 33 minutes. He is all that I'd hoped for and more...but I wouldnt have known were it not for your insightful questions. You REALLY brought out the character of the man. I am VERY grateful. Thank you. Subscribed.
Bruce mentions 'Halcyon Days' being made "ten years ago now..." (marker 9:38-40) was released in 2004. Perhaps this interview was shot in 2014? (although posted Mar 3, 2018). So at the time Bruce would have been 60 (Born Nov 23, 1954). A gracious man indeed, especially since he has a concert with Ricky Skaggs--and the runner being 45 mins behind, and a new banjo player. That's a lot of pressure. Bruce is the consummate professional.
Bruce, we spoke one morning at Dulles Airport where I approached and thanked you for inspiring me to buy an acoustic piano and the long road to become a competent player. I remarked that the journey had proved to be more arduous than expected but it allowed me to discover MIDI and I'm now a world class piano player ... a measure at a time ... the wonders of loop recording. Thank you...For your humanity, humility and your body of work. In particular the cuts for Shawn Colvin, Sara Evans, Bonnie. So glad they didn't hire "anybody". So glad they hired you.
Just saw Bruce play in Gettysburg with the Noisemakers. Still got it! Yeah, his music gets different, but I understand not wanting to get stagnant. I like a lot of the new style.
Oh my, what a pleasure! I am on a Bruce Hornsby kick these days, and not for the first time. I was particularly struck by his nascent remarks about Elton. I say 'nascent' because it seems like there was more he perhaps wanted to say, but the 'flow' of the interview did not allow it. Still, I thought I detected a very slight lump in his throat when he discussed the great master, whom I have long understood as one of his inspirations, just as he - EJ - has always also been one of mine.
JuggyGales1977 I had the great blessing of meeting his mom and Bruce many years ago. Simply wonderful people. It is a fond memory I’ll cherish forever!
My first Bruce concert was 1986. Im one of those people he was describing near the end of the interview. I feel like I’ve missed the best part. It’s been over 2 years since we lost Lyle Mays, Pat Metheny’s longtime collaborator. I wonder, if the stars aligned just right…. Bruce & Pat could take another run at the “Group” environment. Just planting seeds…
Bruce you are not out of big hits yet. My favorite song when I was flying form here to there fishing on sword fish boats not sport fishing. It was 30 40 day trips at sea. I almost lost my life and after everything was said and done. You where still my favorite I knew for sure when I put my headphones on it was you I wanted to listen to. I have a song for you. ...
Bruce, I hope somehow you will get this comment, I would love to see you on tour with Pat Metheny. My wife and I met Pat Metheny in person at the Alley Stevens center in Birmingham Alabama back in 2002 or 3. He's a great musician and so are you. Two of my favorite Pat Metheny songs are follow me and San Lorenzo
Bruce was more lively in his younger days. He was a better performer then. That is life. I will say; Bruces music still reaches my own children and Grandchildren. We Love Bruce Hornsby and The Range!!! Beautiful music!!!!

@@JohnBarnett-u8j So glad you like Bruce Hornsby!
First interview with him that I have ever seen. I knew he would be honest and straight forward. Wonderful person and musician.

Bruce rocks! He is such a calm, carefree, interesting person. A true southern gentleman.
Really missed seeing Bruce in 2020. Won't miss him in 2021.

Thanks for watching the interview and much obliged for subscribing. I hope to have more interviews you enjoy!
Great fellow, incredible artist...I'd love to play with him one day!!!
He looks really young for 63 years old if this was recent. I absolutely LOVE his music. ❤️🎧🎹
yeaa, music keeps people so young in their heads. my first piano teacher was almost 80 but still playing fresh jazz on piano :D

I love his music too... too bad HE doesn't love his music...
@@themarkman8822what do you mean??
Thank you, Paul for sharing this great conversation with one of my favorites. It was most enjoyable!
I am honored you watched! Thank you David!
Paul Leslie that was wonderful!
This is fantastic. Thirty-four minutes of audio joy, brother. Thank you.
I am so grateful you watched/listened!

I’m proud to say that I have never been late picking you up Bruce. Conversations with you are forever etched.

Great interview. I could listen to his stories forever.
Lovely human being and musician.
Great interview. Bruce has a really good memory for years when events happened!

The master pianist. Keep rock'n, Bruce!
Such a talented musician
That's right!
Wow. His mom still lives in the house they grew up in 50-60 years ago? That's wild.
JuggyGales1977 I had the great blessing of meeting his mom and Bruce many years ago. Simply wonderful people. It is a fond memory I’ll cherish forever!
Wow! I didn't know he was around my age! I will be 62 in July 2022
Fantastic interview Paul, as always! What a great sit-down, essential for Bruce fans.
To Jason: yes i feel the same way, when it comes to his fans' he doesn't hold back! LOVE that about him. That's why i will always be a FAN!!!😛🎆
Excellent interview Paul, thanks for the Q and A with him. Delighted with this...
You, sir, just got yourself another subscriber. Just fantastic. Thank you.
Thank you!!! :). I hope to get Bruce on again someday.
Great job Paul.
In my mind; you beat the hell out of what U2 could have and have done!!!!

You'd love the show! He and his band do an incredible show. ENJOY!

Was curious on the date this interview happened, so thought I would post that Paul Leslie's website states it occurred on February 4, 2014
I love his music. Please come to Cleveland, Ohio
as a saloon singer, doubtless I'm yet another in a long succession of women desperately in love with this extraordinary pianist... ;)
Your marvelous
Super talented flow.
Love Rainbow’s Cadillac!
he is a genius
Bruce was more lively in his younger days. He was a better performer then. That is life. I will say; Bruces music still reaches my own children and Grandchildren.
We Love Bruce Hornsby and The Range!!!
Beautiful music!!!!
I bet you were "more lively" in your younger years. Wow.
Kevin Schrum
eye yie yie…….Uhh little FYI, when I was younger I was more active/energetic also. 💁🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Bruce Hornsby's favorite rendition of one of his songs; "Rainbow's Cadillac" by Jerry Granelli: th-cam.com/video/P0465y6mko8/w-d-xo.html
I'm Bruce's age. His story is my story....except I chose engineering ;-)
Paul, When was this recorded?
Dear Mr. Crawford, February 2014.
Zappo!
A $45 Columbia fleece jacket. With a ratty old T shirt underneath it. Way too few people on this planet are like this guy. Way way way way too few.
10:20
Did you really beat Allen Iverson in three consecutive pick up games ?
Weird interviewer
Dude.... What's on your lip??!!
That's your mom.
@@thepaulleslie lol... Good sense of humor. ✌
@@evertking1 Exactly. Thanks for watching.
@@thepaulleslie HAHAHAHAHA. This is the conversation you want to overhear in passing. Priceless.
Passion left Bruce for some evil reason!
Just the opposite is true. You're clueless.
So here he is folks, a man who loves himself and appreciates how lucky he is.
