OK, I've had a life of sort of success, some people know who I am but a lot of people don't. I feel the need to change that still.

Eventually I would like to reach the stage where I don't have to write about love and kisses and all that stuff. I wish I could write about really ultimate things. That's where I think all of us want to go, really. All the groups seem to be heading towards a kind of pop music that deals with ultimate things.

The rock biz is the low end of the creative world. Faces come and go so fast.

I feel great that I've been given a chance in the golden years of my life. To me, it's the last battle, and I've been given a chance to get stuck in some good armament, some good power, and there's a chance that now I can finish off my working years with my head held high.

It's more important what you leave to people on this planet. I want my legacy to exist now, currently, not after I'm gone.

In the day-to-day life of a traveling musician, it's easy to miss so many details. The world goes by at high-speed; it will take your breath away.

I don't think Jimi committed suicide in the conventional way. He just decided to exit when he wanted to.
