In the Bob Harris interview, Rusty says, "Richie left the band to do 'Souther Hillman Furay' - that was a matter of David Geffen just threw so much money at him he couldn't *not* do it - we all understood, I mean I would have done it for the kind of money they were throwing at Richie - but his heart never left the band and he still comes out and plays with us and I think we'll do a project together, perhaps the next one down the line........ [and later] "Richie Furay is a minister in Colorado and so his life is his ministry - ever since I've known Richie he's always been a really kind, people person - he always cared about people and went out of his way - and he was someone people would come to when they had problems - so it's such a natural that he would evolve into a ministry, such a perfect thing for him - that's what he was meant to do."
