I always thought Mr. Newman was talented, but then I started playing “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” from Toy Story for my daughter’s enjoyment and I caught a brief glimpse just how deep his rabbit hole went. On casually listen, the tune seems light and careless, but when you tear it all apart and look at the nuts and bolts, it’s one ingeniously constructed beast. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg of his catalogue. He’s brilliant.

While it wasn’t all about reminiscence, there was enough to make me curious about the L.A. scene as it emerged in the 60’s and 70’s. I appreciate Newman’s honesty as opposed to false self-deprecation, too, and think “I’m a workaholic that doesn’t make himelf work enough” should probably be set to music.

Great interview. It’s nice when the interviewer strays from the press packet to ask real questions. To that end, what abut a Sarah Palin interview?
