very very long good interview with Trey
from 10 years ago
I love the story about the end of If I Could and Fishman’s reaction to it
JW: Have any of the other band members been writing any material that we’ll hear any time soon?
TA: I don’t know if they have, but I’m certainly encouraging them to. Fish [Jon Fishman] just started writing a tune and I was over his house and we were checking it out. It’s a great song. Now that the album has come out and I was kind of spearheading this one, I kind of am looking to do the exact opposite. Whenever we finish a project in a certain direction, I want to do that. I’d really like Mike to write more music. Everybody would. We’re always happy if Page and Fish write some tunes, but there’s no real pressure I think because they don’t usually write songs. It’s not necessarily in their nature. If they do it’s like a happy bonus, but Mike has not been writing music and he needs to write more. We would all love it if he would write more music.
I wonder what song that was…?

It was well worth the wait.
Thanks for sharing this article!
no way they sat on that classic for ten years… 
It was the lyrics that held him up. I heard he had a hard time working out the chorus…XING!
