But to put out a greatest hits on one CD was totally impossible, I just couldn't do it. The best compromise was to put out two CDs - Early Days - which is what it is - and Latter Days.

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

My guitar style was developed during that 10-year period. That's me. That's the way I play, and I don't wish to play any other way. Our own individual identities are firmly stamped on this album.

I love playing. If it was down to just that, it would be utopia.

Seeing people's faces, really getting off on them, makes me incredibly happy. Genuinely.

I can listen to all different sorts of music. I don't really care about The Next Big Thing.

I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, "I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world." I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.
