He asked me what the music was that I was playing, and he loved it, and so I think I might've been the first person to turn him on to "Fire of Love" by The Gun Club. Years later, working on a crappy feature film up north, the bad news came on the radio, and my good pal Gerald Packer had a very hard time working the rest of the day, as did a few others.
