Confounding people's expectations was a way to maintain integrity.
When I work alone, my process is like painting. With Fleetwood Mac, it's more like movie making.
I also learned to be more confident, to trust my instincts more.
I didn't take lessons, and I don't know my scales.
Ironically, that was quite a bit of the appeal of Rumours. It's equally interesting on a musical level and as a soap opera.
All of my style came from listening to records.
