I'm always going forward toward something, and that something is usually an album, because I like to record. I probably like to record more than I like to write.

It was easier than explaining DiMaggio's use as a metaphor.

I think Bridge Over Troubled Water was a very good song. Artie sang it beautifully. The Boxer was a really nice record. But I don't think I've written any great songs.

When I began making my own albums, the songs became funkier. They were more about the streets.

If you'll be my body guard, I can be your long lost pal.

I see a correlation between short stories and songs, because of their length and for what they're meant to evoke. Combine certain words with melodies and it all becomes very moving.

I rate each album as better than the last one. That's how I see it.
