Led Zeppelin, they still rule the airwaves. I hear Zeppelin every day, and they've been around since '69. So the people who grew up with that still listen to that, and now their children listen to it.

On the day I was born, the nurses gathered around, to gaze in wide wonder at the joy they had found.

I hate categories. Hank Williams is a great artist, period. Bob Dylan is a great artist, so is Marty Robbins. They just classify these people and put them in categories so they can sell the thing easier.

I was a big J. Geils fan, a Steppenwolf fan and a Savoy Brown fan.

I said if you want to be Keith Richards, you've got to listen to Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry. Then I thought, "What did Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry listen to?" I said, "They listened to Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters." Well who'd they listen to? They listened to Robert Johnson. I said, "Ok, we'll start with that."

They said my friends were just an unruly mob, and I should get a hair cut and get a new job.

As you get older the odds are against you that you are still going to be on the planet.
