Wanted to let everyone know that Part Two of my in-depth interview with former Yes/King Crimson/Earthworks drummer Bill Bruford is now playing at We Will Rock You http://www.wewillrockyoublog.com/2009/07/02/interview-with-bill-bruford-part-two/
In this segment we discuss the mythos of sex, drugs and rock and roll vs. the working musician’s view of the business; back room deal making and influence trading and how that helped launch the career of Yes; payola and how it has evolved into “independent record promotion”; personality clashes in bands and whether that conflict is healthy or unhealthy; differences in Yes and how they affected the band; and Robert Fripp.
Stay tuned for Part Three, which I will post Monday.Monday is also the day for Part Five of my Styx interview.
Thanks, I hope all is well. Happy 4th of July!
