During my recent conversation with Andy Shauf about the new Foxwarren album, 2, he mentioned that one of his primary production influences for this record was Liquid Swords by GZA. And so now, I present the first interview I ever conducted with GZA. This phoner took place on Monday, October 6, 2008, just before midnight, and was focused on his solo album Pro Tools, and we covered other things too, including whether Wu-Tang Clan might reconcile after their album 8 Diagrams created bad blood in the group. As it happens, Wu-Tang will be launching their final tour, Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber, this summer. This interview originally aired on the Mich Vish Interracial Morning Show! on October 22, 2008.
