Brian on \

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."

Nice interview...I laughed when he was talking about "I Loves You Porgy" and singing like a girl.

I loved hearing Brian's interview on this. What I didn't like, was all the negative comments on NPR's Facebook comment section for this segment.

People who would comment negatively on that interview are by definition cretinous clods.

I heard this too. Came on while I was in my car. Stopped at the store and sat there till it was finished before going in.
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.

The interviewer was Audie Cornish, yep, about half his age
