Title: Brian on \ Post by: Amy B. on August 22, 2010, 03:00:03 PM I just heard Brian on the NPR show "All Things Considered." Great interview, and at the end the interviewer (whose name is difficult to remember, I suppose) thanks Brian, and Brian says, "Thank you, Ma'am." Ha ha. She's probably half his age. And I love this quote from Brian:
"His music is so uplifting," Wilson says. "I wouldn't do this for anybody but Gershwin. He the greater, me the lesser. I can never be as good as George, but I can emulate him and present him to the new generation." http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129344175 Title: Re: Brian on All Things Considered Post by: Amy B. on August 22, 2010, 05:16:06 PM This is available for listening now.

For Brian, it was a good interview. Pure Brian. It sounded spontaneous and unrehearsed (as much as these things can be) . He did better with open ended questions than on most previus interviews I've heard. Still, those who are unfamiliar with Brian might have found it a little curious.
