Jimi Hendrix is the greatest guitar player in the world... a guy who mastered that instrument. It was talking when he played. And when he did a solo, he made the guitar cry - or made it sound like it was coming from the devil's amplifier.

I've definitely seen bands before they made money kind of change their thing on the next tour, and I prefer it when it's a little more raw.

I love artists like Prince, who hold on to that element of mystery.

I am so proud and so happy to be Filipino.

'Doo-wop' is a very special word for me. Because I grew up listening to my dad who, as a Fifties rock & roll head, loved doo-wop music.

To write a song you must have an imagination, to have an imagination you must be free.

I wish I could tell you me and my rock band were traveling around, strung out. No, we were a family band. Straight Partridge Family.
