tell me about that great legendary had landed records boss that's again famous for ray charles that zeppelin and you you came to suspect him i'm sure he would deny any and all being well that's the that's the funny thing i didn't six-pack them at all it 1st i had a band that we had signed to my imprint my label and there were a number of record companies interested in doing a distribution deal so we met up with universal records atlantic records at the time and a few others in new york with the band and after the meeting i remember the c.e.o. of atlantic taking me saying hey do you want to meet the old man you still here his office is right next door i'm like i'm like at love to you signed ray charles and led zeppelin and all these bands so i went and sat down with them and had a nice 10 minute chat and you know i can't tell you anything else but i got an inkling that he had some defensive aspect of me being armenian well when i said listen just so you know i'm armenian you know i grew up in los angeles and you know this that and he kind of got the offensive and it didn't really affect me mu

here his office is right next door i'm like going to look at love to he signed re charles and led zeppelin and all these bands so i went and sat down with them and had a nice 10 minute chat and you know i can't tell you anything else but i got an inkling that he had some defensive aspect of me being armenian when i said listen just so you know i'm armenian you know i grew up in los angeles and you know this that and he kind of got the offensive and it didn't really affect me much so i got on google and i typed america gun and i typed genocide after and i realized that he had been responsible for funding foreign policy institutes and chairs at universities who hired authors and writers that denied the genocide and that was an awakening for me . who i thought will be to fans of fans of the music arguably i'm sure he would say he was just finding what he sees as the truth back to you after of think long you know he called me and he said yeah he said i think the armenian genocide should be recognized and i said ok great why don't you write it on a letterhead and send it to me and i won't publi
