So I had a couple of years of playing trumpet. I really enjoyed it, but it was not the kind of instrument you could whip out at a party. Let's face it.

You would think with all the genius and the brilliance of these times, we might find a higher purpose and a better use of mind.

When you turn out the light, I've got to hand it to me. Looks like it's you and me again tonight Rosie.

So what I do, more than play any instrument - I mean, I love to play - but more than that, I write songs. Songs that are about living, about what it's like to be going through all the things that people go through in life.

When I really started liking music was when I could play some of it myself, and after a couple of years of playing folk music, I kinda rediscovered those hits that were on the radio all the time when I was a kid.

More than a career, I feel that I've got a function. I see things in a much more holistic way. Some people bake the bread, and some people write the songs.

I was doing my best Bogart, but I was having trouble getting into her jeans.
