Speaker 3: failed with the guy who cuts James Rayne's trees.

10
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 2: James Rain's trees. That's amazing. How did this first come up?

11
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 4: He's at the same standing club as me and he

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 4: needs some help on a job.

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 3: So I went around and we were we weren't working

14
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:43,080

15
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,040

21
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 4: Morgan, Hi, Christian, My weakest claim to fame is that

22
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 4: my dad's best friend had a high school band and

23
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 4: they turned down Neil Young as their lead singer.

24
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: Come on, really, hey, Gold not in this bands? Move along?

25
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:23,240

26
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,639
Speaker 4: No, they didn't like his sound.

27
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: They didn't like his sound. What do he have that

28
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: sort of sound fully formed? Even then any audition for

29
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: the band? So when was this obviously what like late sixties,

30
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: thirty seventies.

31
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,560
