Music is the language of heaven.

I don't hear record companies coming up with any good ideas or suggestions. Historically, if it ain't their idea, it ain't no good, so you got that to contend with.

If you give it good concentration, good energy, good heart and good performance, the song will play you.

Those bad times are important. They give you a chance to practice, listen, take stock, have a life, get your feet back on the ground, and maybe you'll live to tell the story.

Forever Young, by Dylan, is one of my favorite songs.

Most of our stuff was trial and error. You live with a tape recorder, you turn it on, you play the song and you listen to it.

When I was younger, I used to drive up to a bunch of turkeys, roll down the window and say something. They'd all gobble back at once.
