You don't always do the same things you've done the night before. That's what makes playing live so interesting as opposed to being in the studio.

Everyone knows what their roots are, but you've got to explore everywhere. You've got to explore the sky too.

The grown-up world was a very ordered society in the early '60s, and I was coming out of it. America was even more ordered than anywhere else. I found it was a very restrictive society in thought and behavior and dress.

I can't get no satisfaction.

I don't want to be my extravert self all the time.

Drug use makes you snappy, and you get very bad-tempered and have terrible hangovers.

I wasn't taking so many drugs that it was messing up my creative processes. It was a very good period, 1968 - there was a good feeling in the air. It was a very creative period for everyone.
