It?s easy to say, in retrospect, that the interview I did with Denny Doherty from the Mama?s & Papa?s, was one of the very best interviews I?ve ever done in my 16 year career as the host of FM Odyssey, but it was!
It was a serendipitous moment. It was March of 2003 and Denny came to visit me at the FM Odyssey studios for a 20 minute interview as he was on his way to a recording session in Orlando, FL.
While the tape was rolling, Denny received a phone call telling him his recording session was canceled; he looked at me and said, ?I have no place to go? and I said, ?I have so much more to ask about?. And the FM Odyssey retrospective of the Mama?s & Papa?s became history. Without a net, for two hours, the tape never stopped rolling and neither did we! As you listen, keep in mind there were no post production edits. What you?ll hear in this interview is everything, just the way it happened.The connection we had with each other spills out in this show. He was funny and witty and I guarantee you won?t stop laughing for days after you hear this. The real facts about the history of the Mama?s and Papa?s have never been told like this before.
Thank you, Denny, for sharing a brief sliver of your life with me.
