bob james nathan eastHuffington Post blogger Mike Ragogna recently interviewed Nathan East about playing with Fourplay, as well as some of the other many people he's worked with over the years. It's a great interview with someone who really cares about music and you can tell Nathan is having a great time as well. He reflects about getting to know George Harrison while playing bass on his last tour, and laughs about singing the line "and put your feet on the ground" on the theme from Footloose. Read the full interview HERE.
