If you're going to get into music, you've got to learn the 12-bar blues.

I was working at this club in downtown L.A. from four to eight at night, just Eddie Rubin, the drummer, and I.

I've got a Fender Concert amp from the '60s, the one Joe Osborn used. He played his bass through it.

But I always loved songs with great lyrics.
