This week, I'm a gypsy. Maybe next week it'll be glitter rock.

I deal in emotions. It's the harmonic side that's important. That's the side I expected to be much further along on than I am now. That just means to say that I've got to keep at it.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.

You can't expect to be the same person you were three years ago. Some people expect you to be and can't come to terms with the fact that if a year has elapsed between LPs, that means one year's worth of changes. The material consequently is affected by that, the lyrics are affected by that... the music too.

I think it was that we were really seasoned musicians. We had serious roots that spanned different cultures, obviously the blues.

I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.

My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.
