“Tom Stafford was an odd character, you know - a brilliant guy. He looked weird and I think he took a really defensive attitude about being a hunchback. You know how people can be, giving him a hard time. So he turned that into a defensive mechanism. He would strike first, a lot of times. But he was a great guy, and really those talks we had when I was about 15, out of all of that came the studio over the drugstore and everything else. I'm not saying - I'm no big deal, but I was a part of the birth of the music there.” PeopleThinkingKnowsGivingFirstsHardCharacterBigsGuyDealsAttitudeKnow HowBirthStudiosStrikesBrilliantOddHard TimesMechanismTomsBig DealGreat Guy Author:Donnie Fritts
