Artists say that paintings are never done. I sort of feel the same way about music. I would never say something is perfect. There are performances that can generate a lot of emotion in me when I hear them, but I can't say if anything is perfect.

I don't like being stuck in one situation, day to day.

The way I see it, rock & roll is folk music. Street music. It isn't taught in school. It has to be picked up.

Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.

I'm not a guitarist as far as a technician goes, I just pick it up and play it. Technique doesn't come into it.

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

The element of change has been the thing, really. We put out the first one, then the second... then a third LP totally different from them. It's the reason we were able to keep it together.
