To make a rock'n'roll record, technology is the least important thing.

To me, it's important to prove that this isn't just teenage kids' s**t and you should feel embarrassed when you're over forty and still doing it.

You didn't know whether Chuck Berry was black or white - it was not a concern.

Treat each guitar track-and each song-completely different. For example, if I'm using a certain amp and guitar on one track, I'll deliberately use something else for the next tune or overdub.

I've always been suspicious of TV, I've always found music and video to be an unhappy marriage.

I was in awe sometimes listening to Mick Taylor . Everything was there in his playing - the melodic touch, a beautiful sustain and a way of reading a song.

Rock n Roll is music from the neck down.
