The more I think of this the more convinced I am that it must have been Christmas 1977 or 1978. I have a distinct memory of leaving from a house in Inglewood, CA that I bought in partnership with John and three other guys.
I had pretty much patched things up with Dad by that time, so I’m not sure why I decided to skip the family Christmas.
Sorry about the phone ringing in the middle of the recording. I didn’t even notice it ringing while I was recording. This was only my twelfth episode, I was still figuring things out.
