Hi - the interview you cite from CNN was conducted at his cabin in Beacon in New York, with his wife Toshi there. It was a long and incredible day with him and as one would expect he was generous with his time and recollections. I was thrilled to spend the time
with him and as you noted, many music giants were also thrilled to be
a part of his 80th. I had the chance to attend his 90th at Madison
Square Garden in New York, where anyone who was still breathing and had been influenced by Pete - musically, politically, or environmentally -- showed up. Very moving tributes. But the interview you cite was for his 80th. Thanks, Rona
