Eddie George was outstanding early.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What do you remember about Jason Robinson? His feet. Not how improved he was under a high ball or his kicking skills. Everyone remembers those feet. He could go round you in a phone box.
We were playing a small club in San Diego and the power had gone out in the building. Eddie had a lighter and kept us lit backstage. We became very good friends and spent a lot of time together including hearing Eddie sing in some of the bands he was in at the time.
George Morris is a legend. I was lucky enough to have been on a number of his U.S. show-jumping teams and am constantly trying to learn from him.
Marty Stanovich was an honorable man.
As far as heroes thorough the years, I'd say definitely Alabama and Randy Owen, Conway Twitty was a big influence of mine, George Strait, Lionel Richie.
And George Carlin was a guy that the more he aged the younger he seemed.
That's not to say Eddie's never done anything malicious. But he never grabbed power for power's sake. His position was gained only because he has that energy, and that's naturally where he ended up.
Chris Johnson was outstanding early.
John Bonham was probably the most influential in terms of playing style and timing.
Eddie Murphy was the Michael Jordan of comedy. He had a full range of abilities.
