I went to engineering school, I went to physics class. I said, 'Screw this, I don't want to be here. I'd much rather be at a club playing music.

I was in a vintage pub rock band called Clover in the 1970s.

I grew up in Marin County north of San Francisco, and in the 1950s and '60s it was a natural paradise.

I am deluded enough to think I can bring something to the table.

Back in the day you wanted your albums to have a theme, and 'Sports' theme was really a collection of singles. It was really a record for its time.

Now the old boy may be barely breathing, but the heart of rock and roll is still beating.

You've been thinking and I've been drinking.
