Hi Luis, I had the same feeling when I first heard about it. I don't know him but I know his older son very well: he is one of the most beautiful souls ( and musicians) I have had the lucky to meet. I think it was also because of this that I immediately felt the need to dig a little into his sentence to find how it represented a great opportunity for the scandalistic tribe of newsmakers media ( in Italy they seem to be the majority now). I think it was certainly put in a manner that could offer its weak side to bad thinkers and that was what it happened. I am happy that other people have had the same feeling and put some deeper informations about it. my best, luca www.unguitar.com L.A.
