I'm very fortunate because I love what I'm doing.

I suggested back in 1980 to do a chronological live album, but there wasn't that much enthusiasm for it.

Let me explain something about guitar playing. Everyone's got their own character, and that's the thing that's amazed me about guitar playing since the day I first picked it up. Everyone's approach to what can come out of six strings is different from another person, but it's all valid.

I'm at my best when I'm exhausted and under pressure.

I'm not interested in turning anybody on to anybody that I'm turned on to... if people want to find things, they find them themselves.

I've never regretted anything I've ever done.

I don't care what critics and other people think.
