Koney Ferrell Interview on The Paul Leslie Hour

Are you here? Didn’t we just start another of those…. things. Ya know, years. Yeah it’s a new year. If you like years, rumor has it we just started one up.

So, this is The Paul Leslie Hour. It’s not bad, is it?


We’ve got something of a landmark here. This is the first broadcast interview Paul ever did. It’s with multi-instrumentalist Koney Ferrell.

So back in the early days of the show, the interviews were short. This one is about 6 minutes. So, Paul told me take your time with the intro. Don’t rush it because the interview isn’t long.

Ya see back in the day, the point of Paul’s broadcasting wasn’t to do interviews. It was playing music. So he’d just chat for a short while and then spin a bunch of tunes.

So today’s interview with Koney Ferrell was Paul’s very first broadcast interview. Yep.

Koney can play mandolin, bass, lap steel guitar and other instruments. Talented guy, Koney is. Koney Ferrell has a special place in Paul’s heart. The radio show was jut getting off the ground and Koney was kind enough to be the first guest. Now, back in those days Koney was playing and recording with A1A.

Hey, another thing to just keep in mind that we’re going to hit 20 years of the show in October. Right now we’re sitting at 19 years. We need your help though. Be a patron of the spoken word and help us get all of these interviews out there. Go to thepaulleslie.com/support
