I wanted all my solos to be something you could sing along with

That's what I spend most of my time doing, breathing a lot. I like air.

I am very happy to be alive. There is much fun to be had. Music, movies, books, paintings, drawingsI hope you have these things where you are. If you have them, what does the real world matter anyway?

But for me if I'm gonna read about something I'd rather read a pamphlet or the instructions to a synthesizer than a book on Buddhism.

You are free. Close your eyes. Open your mind. Let this music in, and you will see that this is true

To me music is the centre of the universe and the voice of the spirits and the voice of God and the voice of all the people who have lived and died...At least the ones I'm connected to.

When the intellectual part of guitar playing overrides the spiritual, you don't get to extreme heights.
