My music and lyrics became an extension of this Indian philosophy.

Artists were nurtured back in the '70s. Their music was developed by the record companies.

I didnt develop or build synths. I had my technicians modify them for my live stage performances.

I'm doing music that I like and that I hope other people will like too.

My career has kind of taken on a life of its own.

I really don't make music to have platinum records and all that kind of stuff. I've been there. I do it because I love music and I love uplifting people through my music. That's my real goal.

Not everybody has things that become classics.
