I bet you can't play slide piano.

You absorb so much from whatever your environment is, as an artist, and you learn to take from it what can help you create.

There's a certain standard in classical music that allows the application of the term "genius," but you're treading on thin ice if you start applying it to rock & rollers.

Let's just say I'm like a ship passing through storms, resting in ports now and then until it's time to continue the journey. I once told a friend, `I'm just looking for an angel with a broken wing - one that couldn't fly away.'

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

I don't deal in technique. I deal in emotions.

No. I usually rest in my satin-lined coffin, actually. I'm not allowed out in daylight hours.
