In my old age, my mind gets more open, and I listen to so many different types of music and I guess that all reflects in my work.

I just pretty much love from 1966 to 1972, that's my time. I think everything that needs to be said was said within that time. That's just a subjective thing, as well.

Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.

Coming from a little suburban town, I wasn't a hip city kid. I was quite the opposite, really. Songs like 'Saturday's Kids' rang a bell for kids all over the country. That song was about the kids I grew up with.

It's a global fashion thing; because of the Internet it has gotten really small. It's cluttered, but it's gotten small.

There are so many artists who get to my age that get comfortable and just stick in a groove, and I really don't want to do that.

I suppose it's nice to have some surprise in life and to surprise yourself in life and see what else you can do.
