Barry Ryan Interview (The Strange Brew)
‘Brother’
I remember Rod Stewart wanted to record it.
I said, “Yeah. Go ahead.”
But he said “I want people to think I wrote it.”
I can’t remember now. He said something like….
Oh yeah. “I want to say that I wrote it”
so I told him to sod off!
I swear to you that’s the truth.
I thought, “well, let me think about that Rod for a minute…. No!”
People are weird aren’t they?!?
It’s a nice song by the way. It’s got a nice kind of vibe to it.
I understand that was produced by Junior Campbell
from The Marmalade? Great song writer.
He was, yeah. He’s a very, very good producer.
