Rob Reiner's tragic and unexpected death last year must have been a really terrible shock for you.
Couldn't believe it.
It was just unimaginable.
I can't imagine what he and his wife went through.
It was just absolutely heartbreaking.
Your next choice for This Cultural Life is one of the great songwriting partnerships, Elton John and Bernie Taubman.
Yeah.
When did you first hear their music?
I heard their music when I was very, very young.
My brother, who was seven years older than me, was a huge music fan and kind of exposed me to a lot of music.
And I think my love of music was really developed then.
by him and my desire to spend time with my older brother.
So, yeah, I was listening to Elton John, you know, five or six, seven years old.
They weren't hand-me-downs from a brother.
Like, he was buying the new records in 71, 72, 73.
So you're talking about Tumbleweed Connection, Madman Across the Water, the first Elton John album, all of those.
I was five blocks down the street when Elton John in 1970 played at the Troubadour.
Yeah.
Really?
I was five years old, but I was down the street.
