This is the story of a tuna taco. The best tuna taco in the world. It's also the story of two brothers who both have restaurants, and the son of one of the brothers that's a chef who has one of the best eateries in Texas.

This is Ralph's story, and his brother's story, and his nephew's — an improbable tale that could only come out of Texas.

Dave Grohl / Play

Seven instruments, one song, one man — all Dave Grohl. In "Play", Dave gets back to his roots in a way. The Foo Fighters eponymous first record was done just like this, just Dave in the studio. The first part of "Play" is Dave talking about the love of music and the technical challenges of making the 23-minute piece, with the second part being the performance itself. You can't find anyone today with the love and heart for music like Dave Grohl.
