“I think Carl probably got the worst of it. Probably Carl and Dennis. Did I say worst? (laughs) The best of the worst or whatever. Because he would call Carl immediately. ‘Hey I got this idea, I need a guitar, come on I got something to work on.’ He was the guy that Brian would bounce his first seminal ideas onto, I think. Before he would approach the band with the full on thing.”
