I am highly offended by the total lack of acknowledgement of my contribution to Laker success.
I have nothing but respect for the Lakers. So many of their legends shaped who I am as a person and player.
On 'Van Halen ' I was a young punk and everything revolved around the fastest kid in town gunslinger attitude. But I'd say that at the time of 'Fair Warning ' I started concentrating more on songwriting. But I guess in most people's minds I'm just a gunslinger.
