I myself put forward the notion that it was possible that the infamous "other people's drivel" comment could have been a result of poor editing and was possibly presented out of context in another thread a few months ago - dealing with inteviews, comments, etc.,etc. So, as you see, I've been willing to give THLSM the benefit of the doubt regarding the circumstances of the quote.
I offered that he may have actually been referring to the session work and one-time stuff he'd been doing since Rainbow folded it's tent in 1984. Nevertheless, he certainly didn't help his credibility any by referring to anybody else's work as "drivel". After all, he took the money to sing the drivel, didn't he? But, the point is, he certainly could've been the victim of a cantankerous interviewer and some shoddy - or simply, manipulative - editing.
He was. A typical example of bad postproductiion and bad publicist. Being a PR expert myself I saw hundreds of such badly edited interviews. You can make person look like a jerk by very simple editing.
DEATH TO JLTBS!

Hmmm....not sure about that line of logic. But, seeing as it doesn't apply to a thread regarding the JLTBS, I shan't waste another macrosecond pondering it.

Re: Special announcement from the JLTBS!!
Oh, and by the way folks - we at the JLTBS are certainly happy to see that people are doing what the thread's original intention was - HAVE FUN!
As our esteemed forum colleague Celtic Legacy's posts always conclude - "Always be prepared to laugh at yourself...because someone else always is." Or maybe it was "Don't always take yourself so seriously - no one else does." Or something like that!

Nope, wasn't aware of that...I'll be checking later today.
