I never heard that, but it's surprising, considering he gave several interviews in the early 70's in which he openly talked about his time in prison, including a stint in San Quentin for a botched robbery. In fact, I recall that it was during a stretch in solitary confinement that he decided to turn his life around. Interesting and strange. He's not been shy about his past - at least in the past...

Yep, it seemed to be a clumsy way to say he would rather talk about something else. It was the same interview in which he surprised Art, by not sharing the opinion the importance of the death of Lady Diana was was being overplayed. My memory holds decades old things I don't care about and I can not remember if I fed the dog.
I love Merle's music and it always makes me recall long trips in my GTO. I had two or three newly invented cassettes and his was one of them.
