Jock and I have a great conversation about the decision to pay tribute to their Friends & Family and some of the stories behind the songs, playing guitar for Gram Parsons on tour, forming Firefall in 1974 in Boulder with Mark Andes, bassist from Spirit and Jo Jo Gunn, Larry Burnett and drummer Michael Clarke from The Byrds and Flying Burrito Bros, keeping a band going for five decades and much more. I had a great time getting to know Jock. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
