Q:By
the way, how did you get the Dylan gig? Because of your
sessions with Tim Buckley?
A:No.
I was doing some work in LA with a singer whose manager
also managed Joan Baez. He knew Dylan was auditioning drummers
and he recommended me. I auditioned, and got the gig.
Q:
Were you booked for those Buckley sessions while still in
England?
A:
Yes. It was actually a session for The Old Grey Whistle
Test TV show, and the band consisted mainly of The Streetwalkers
who I was playing with at the time.
