We played at a club called, the Elbow Room. Don Carlos, the nightclub owner, was very hip and a very important person who made a big impact on my life.

Everything that Traffic ever did, I'd give Steve a complete lyric, titled, written out with the verse, the bridge, the shape and rhyme and then Steve had to figure out how the meter of the words would fit musically.

We all had a desire and appreciation for such a wide range of music.

Guys would hang out in groups just to be with the music.

Far From Home was also my idea from a magazine I'd seen.

Mr. Fantasy was the only song that was scribbling on a piece of paper.

After that, I specifically started writing lyrics. I would like sweat and think and get it all together.
