When you get a groove going, time flies.

I tried to grow up. Honest. Didn’t quite happen. I guess I’m someone for whom youth still seems more real than the present, or the half century in between. And why not? I'm deeply underwhelmed by most contemporary art, literature, music, films, TV, the heinous little phones, money talk, real estate talk, all that stuff. The Internet, which at first seemed so fascinating, appears to be evolving into something even worse than TV, but we'll see.

As jazz fans, it was amusing for us to play jazz harmonies on these big, ugly electric guitars.

We don't think of ourselves as being perfectionists, really. To us it's more about desperately trying to have it sound more or less OK.

I don't think you can escape the environment we live in now.

I think of Steely Dan as being of its time, and it may be inseparable from its time.
