How in the heck one person can be so prolific and soul-wrenching and heart-sounding at the same time, starting at such a young age and continuing on and on and on... Jimmy Webb is one of the best!

I wonder what Jimmy Webb and the likes of his talent sincerely think about today's mainstream music. I personally just can't connect to it. It's all glitter, no substance.

[@alan30189]

I love listening to him talking about his experiences in the industry.

[@magsrobinson5187]

Jimmy....I and many others spend hours and hours listening to YOUR songs over and over again.

[@neilmacpherson58]

Very interesting views from a master song writer and craftsman.

[@anthonypepitoneVideo]

I have never heard even one song by Jim Webb that I wanted to hear again.

[@FrankHDicks-et9cf]

[@andym1842]

light my fire take 1000

[@nomobjustice]

Priceless

[@sumrica]

Sure wish the rest of this interview would surface. My little bit of poking around the web says that it's likely among Paul Surratt"s archives.

[@alphabeets]

Amazing!

[@sumrica]

Sure wish I knew where the full interview is. I've poked around the internet. Can't find it.

[@711046106]

Yo, Jimma!

[@RubyBandUSA]

Jimmy, Hal Blaine was not of Italian family origin, but of Jewish heritage

[@althecatify]

Cool interview! What a time it must have been in LA in the late 60's, with this mass of incredible music being created, down in Hollywood & up in the hills, particularly in Laurel Canyon. Music was created that still endures today 50 years later. You think anybody will be listening to pukes like Kanye West 50 years from now? Jimmy Webb's music was the soundtrack of my life as a teenager, still affects me to this day, incredible genius!

[@landyman97]

Jimmy Webb is a genius but what is more important is.....what would he do if he was down and out...would his genius for music help him? I think not. He is a genius in music but not life....

[@1rwjwith]

Great funny stuff…one detail HAL BLAINE is not ITALIAN he is JEWISH! kind of funny and a understandable mistake to make.

[@terenceboris851]

Jimmy always tells good stories.
