Flip through the latest issue of Gulf Weekly.
Dave Nunnally, Public Affairs Officer
What was the first album you ever bought?
I didn’t really buy it, but I borrowed my brother’s copy of The Eagle’s Hotel California in 1976. He left it in my parent’s stereo – I don’t think I ever gave it back.
What album has changed your life?
To me, my life has been like a book. The years of my life, and my experiences, are the sentences and chapters of a much larger story. Music is the punctuation between those sentences. So to narrow it down to one album is not possible – Allman Brother’s Melissa, Southern Cross by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and Sugar Magnolia by the Grateful Dead all have had a profound impact at one point or another.
What do you sing in the shower?
I grew up in Oklahoma back in the United States, so Never Been To Spain by Three Dog Night kind of hits close to home. You know the lyrics, “... I’ve never been to Heaven, but I’ve been to Oklahoma...”.
What’s your favourite album of all time?
To relax, it’s The Doobie Brothers Greatest Hits.
What’s in your CD player at the moment?
I have gone completely digital, so my iPod is completely loaded. This is frightening, but the top played artists are Allman Brothers, Miranda Lambert and John Corbett. Guess I am little homesick....
