LARRY GATLIN - JUNE 1988 This is a talk by country music singer, Larry Gatlin in June of 1988 when he was sober for about four years. He begins this talk by saying, "My name is Larry Gatlin and I'm an alcoholic." He follows that up by stating that he's also a recovering drug addict. He tells about his first drunk at age 16. Larry tells how he and a bunch of other aspiring singers and songwriters would get very drunk and high and attempt to compose music. But he says he never, ever wrote a good song when he was loaded. He talks about his cocaine use quite a bit. On December 2nd, 1984, Larry hit his bottom in a Dallas, Texas hotel room. He asked for God's help. He doesn't talk about Alcoholics Anonymous much but he does say that he's a member of AA and attends two meetings every week. At the end he takes some questions from the crowd and finishes up by playing guitar and singing his song, "All the Gold in California." This recording has a little background noise, however every word is understandable. It's probably about a seven out of ten. Contents - 10 Tracks Length - 49 Minutes |
