Artie travels all the time. The rehearsals were just miserable. Artie and I fought all the time. He didn't want to do the show with my band; he just wanted me on acoustic guitar.

I regret the ending of our friendship and hope one day before we die, we'll make peace with each other . . . No rush.

The course of a lifetime runs/over and over again

When I was 15, I made a solo record. It made Artie very unhappy. He looked upon it as something of a betrayal.

I don't consider myself to be a major talent, so the only solace I can take is to hope I'm growing.

Anthony Heilbut has been a guide and a mentor to me. I know of no one who has the love and depth of knowledge of this extraordinary author.

I didn't get how big it was until I went home, turned on the television and saw it on all the news, and later that night on the front pages of all the newspapers. Then I got it.
