If it weren't for the Beatles, I would not be a musician.

When I sit down to interview people, I don't hold questions and I don't know the answers. They're more like conversations that become lessons.

Neil Young is my hero, and such a great example. You know what that guy has been doing for the past 40 years? Making music. That's what that guy does.
