The Joe Jackson Interviews Joe Jackson Productions

I'm posting this again because it reminds me of the first time I met Dolores, at the start of her career, when she was so young and so innocent, and it shows. 

I used this interview in my Ebook, From Darkness to Light, becuase it is a story that may inspire people who are going through hard times. That's always been my main aim as a writer. 

My father once said to me, 'Joseph, working-class people like us are not supposed to write poetry."  He told a few people that he wrote poetry. I still write poetry and rarely show it to anyone. But 46 years after I found him dead from a fall at the age of 50, I am putting this poem in a podcast to celebrate the love a son can feel for a father. 

It's great when you interview a musician who turns out to be as fanatical about music and certain music heroes, as you are

Richard, as I say in his bio, Richard Harris Raising Hell and Reaching for Heaven, hated the idea that all his fans wanted to hear about were his brawling and women and drunkenness, but this is a bit of fun!

I always championed the Sawdoctors, and here we have great fun about the music they love and created.
