This was an Irish Times interview I did with Garth Brooks in 1991. We did three major interviews at the time. It was said in public by Dave Pennyfeather, Garth's European representative at the time, that I "helped break Garth Brooks in Ireland." How do I feel about that, now that Garth is King of Country in Ireland again? Strange!
