The key to Zeppelin's longevity has been change.

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

You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure; it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a specific moment is what drives it.

When I went over to the States to promote Outrider, everyone was telling me I was a blues guitarist. I'm not a bloody blues guitarist. I'm a guitarist.

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 do not worship the devil. But magic does intrigue me. Magic of all kinds. I bought Crowley's house to go up and write in. The thing is, I just never get up that way. Friends live there now.

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