More recently, I used guitar synthesizer extensively on the two albums I did with Robert Fripp.

I think rock records tend to be very expensive.

You don't want to be so far off the planet that you come out with something that doesn't make sense to anybody.

'Triboluminescence' is actually a scientific world meaning striking something and creating light from dark. I thought it was a great word and that is was a very apt metaphor for making music - or any creative act, really. We all start in the dark and have to create light.

I don't like playing standards. I like to do my own cutting edge work.

If you're a guitarist, you should not be intimidated by using your instrument as a synthesizer, but you shouldn't feel that you have to own one, either.

I've got four or five records in my head at a time that I try to work on and I would like to do a guitar trio record next - since The Police I've mostly made records with keyboards.
