Just to add a minor correction. I am from West Covina, California a city within the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles County. I'm not from Houston, Texas.

Man this was the truth! This was a masterclass!! Thank you so much for providing such an amazing interview. Eric - I have so much more respect for you as a person, even more because of you sharing with us what’s real with your family. How many musicians do we all know of that choose temptation over their own families when on the road? Not all, but there’s so many. I’ve seen it all the time in my own circles over the years. Thank you for sharing that very personal side of your life with us all. It’s so awesome to hear and see that not only are you a monster musician, but you’re also a fantastic husband to your wife, and you’re working on that relationship. I’m definitely sharing this interview on my social media platforms. Peace, love and happiness to you both, and to your families.

Thanks for the kind words Elia, we'll foward your message along to Eric.

[@zbs2363]

Thank you for those precious insights! I was honoured to be sitting first row on Eric's gig with Mr Potter and James Francies in Berlin 2019, recorded the audio with my smartphone and listened to it regularly since. I'm very much looking forward to the next time you'll come around here, when you'll feel ready to tour again.

[@1haimp]

Thanks for these amazing interviews 🙏🙏 The audio on the tune you play at the end isn't audible, so maybe consider cutting it out..

[@WollSockenTraeger]

Great interview. Thanks! English isn‘t my first language so I didn‘t quite understand the Henderson story. Did eric say „the finest blade“ he‘s ever seen?!

[@grahambates9344]

Nein. Ich denke er hat gemeint "Brian Blade" der trommel meister! (Und dein English besser als er!)

[@leodebraga9346]

Its funny how the same is Eric playing and speaking... That´s for any musician actually...

[@russellmoore2799]

Eric mentions Tony Williams passing at 60 when in fact (sadly) he was only 51. (1945-1997).
