We started with Denny Cordell, and he was a great record producer. He knew exactly how to take a band that knew absolutely nothing, and guide you without trying to tell you what to do.

I think I drift toward sad love songs.

Sometimes you work with somebody you've never heard of because you just feel like working.

I loved working with Bob Dylan.

I'm playing 10 feet from Mike Campbell every night. I look across the stage, there's Howie. Tom's in the middle and we're playing all this stuff I love. It's great.

I try to find little things that you can do to move the song along and things that serve the song.

If you call attention to yourself at the expense of the song, that's the cardinal sin.
