What incredible success Jimmy Webb had such a young age, already winning a Grammy at about 20 years young ... and so many of his successful songs when he wasn't much older than that .

Jimmy is a dream for interviewers because he always gives so much.

[louellastone]

All the world is a symphony. Such a unique and gifted man. Jimmy Webb is a national treasure.

Warren, you are a great interviewer! Less is more and let the man talk! I loved this! Thank you so much!

[karieanne]

Well said, Jimmy. Those of us who grew up in that era did not realize what a unique and wonderful time we were priviledged to inhabit, and what a wonder that it is just ‘gone’ and the present generation has no knowledge of that mist of time. So strange. You, sir, are a wonder. Thank you for the beautiful songs you have given to the world.

Wow! This interview has stirred up a lot of emotions as someone who remembers Mr. Webb’s work from when I was a young kid. So many of his songs are eternal classics. Thank you for sharing this conversation with us!

[davidhampshire]

I had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy once and thanked him for the pleasure his music has given me and he was modest and unassuming. A truly great songwriter. 🎶🎶🎶

[slaphead]

I knew this was going to be interesting. I didn’t know this was going to THAT interesting. What fabulous stories and advice from one of the truly exceptional American artists. Superb! What Mr. Webb said about the importance of music in our lives was so profoundly moving. I never heard it put so beautifully.

[sprezzatura]

It pleases me to know Jimmy Webb's songs will endure. Timeless classics. Definitely in the pantheon.

As an aspiring songwriter myself (but at 64 I wonder when the aspiring ends lol) I love to listen to other songwriters - especially a giant like Jimmy Webb, pull back the curtain and give us some insights into their process. But with Jimmy the man is such an enthusiastic, humble, funny and engaging storyteller it makes me see how his songs are such a natural and remarkable extension of his being. What a treasure and gifted man in so many respects! Thank you for giving him this platform and unique peak into this particular era of musical history

It's no surprise that Jimmy is such an incredible communicator when he speaks. Like his songwriting, the imagery he effortlessly creates with words is awesome. He's earned his legendary status repeatedly.

[edzielinski]

I have no words for how much this interview affected me. A lifetime of wisdom and genius distilled into an hour. What I love most about Jimmy and this interview (besides the amazing stories and sheer joy it conveys) is the glimpse you get into the man behind the music. Everything that makes you love Jimmy is exactly what goes into his music: passion, commitment, loyalty, dedication, thoughtfulness, and all the rest. It's a great reminder that the music we create ultimately can only reflect what is within ourselves, and people will only listen if we can offer something that has worth. Jimmy has that in spades. Thanks so much Warren and Jimmy!

[gardensofthegods]

Wow, Jimmy Webb so down to earth and humble ... he certainly has a youthful quality .
You can tell he had a spirit of generosity and was easy to work with .
What a great guy and I'd love to see him hit some real huge great heights with songs now again like he did in his earliest years ... I'd really love to see that come full circle ... I really think it's possible that could happen within the next few years

[dkpianist]

That was one heartfelt and moving plea towards the end when he talked about the value of music and how it translates (not) into money for creators. A rich and wonderful interview, thanks Warren and team!

[peterbaione]

"To help people feel what they're feeling" may be the most profound job description of a songwriter ever.

[climbtibet]

Jimmy is as gentle and talented a soul as there can be. ❤ 💪 🎹

[Liveonprayer]

Thanks for this interview. Strange but I just learned to play Witchita Lineman a few days ago. What a great song.

[kevinmacbride]

Someday this could be in the Library of Congress! Love Jimmy and his legacy. Thank you Warren!

[gergemall]

Love this musical genius and most sincere person ❤.
