I've recorded 25 or 30 albums. I know that sometimes when you work with producers who are kinda dictators, it doesn't help you make a better record.

I'm just a down-to-earth guy.

I look at my kid, and one part of me wants to keep her as my little baby. But, y'know, the bottom line is she's 18!

By the time I'm 40, interplanetary travel will be common. Nobody will want to talk to me at that age, anyway.

As long as I know what key the solo is in, I try to kind of empty my mind and not think about anything. I just play without thinking.

I knew I was destined to be a rock star. I just knew it, like I've always had the power of foresight. I feel right now exactly the way I felt after I finished mixing my first solo album 'New York Groove'.

People, y'know, they either love us or they hate us; there's no middle ground.
