Up The Junction With Difford & Tilbrook
Paul Zollo, SongTalk, Spring 1992
WHEN YOU TALK to Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook of Squeeze, unlike other collaborators who finish each other's thoughts, they sit at opposite ends of the table, paying attention only while talking and tuning out while their partner speaks. It made the setting of our second talk, a tennis court, the perfect place for such a meeting, as I was compelled to constantly turn from one to the other, as if watching tennis.
