I was with a folk trio back in '63 and '64, and we traveled all across North Africa, Israel, and Europe.

Apparently, I don't want to take myself too seriously.

I lived in London in 1965 and 1972. I love it there and I'm always very creative in that vibe. Would love to live for awhile in Scotland/Ireland and Britain. Great appreciation there for the folk scene and song crafting.

There's not that many people from the sixties who have progressed as writers and are continuing on. They're out there. But I'm one of them who's just continued on, following his own little inner madness.

If I write songs and I think they sound good, then that's it. That's what I do. I'm not a technical musician, which is fine for rock and roll.

I don't sit down to write a song, per se.

I don't want to take myself too seriously. That's my lesson to myself.
