A Phone Call with Garth Brooks. 1992. Garth on fatherhood, critics of country music, the universality of song, and Mick Hanley

It is claimed that I helped 'break" Garth Brooks in Ireland, thanks to a series of interviews we did from 1989-2003. But who am I to say if I did or not! Either way, this is a phone interview we did for The Irish Times and in it, he discusses becoming a father, music snobs. country music, critics and the songs of Mick Hanley.
