Well, this is a treat. We get to hear from a rock legend on today's show. In this one-on-one conversation with sax player Scott Page (Pink Floyd, Supertramp, Toto) who has not only played music for millions...but is arguably more successful as a solopreneur after his main music career.
This was so much fun to record. I could have gone another couple hours just talking music. I couldn't wait to put it out to the world, and into your earballs. Please enjoy one of my favorite episodes of all time.
In the meantime, here's Scott's Wikipedia.
