I hope the Canada Pops can play in E and A. I do 'Forty Days' and 'Bo Diddley'. I don't change songs, just bands.

A good band is like a team. You want to have the right balance. It's not always the best people you need, but the right ones for the job.

Wherever there are rock n rollers, well play. Thats what weve been doing for more than 30 years - rock n roll. Its made me everything from an honorary mayor to honorary member of a motorcycle gang.

I was a Gordon Lightfoot fan before he ever had a song out. You just knew he was pure talent and he was going to be successful. Gordon has written and recorded some of the greatest music ever.

I dont know whos left to hear us. But if there are people who want the real thing, weve got it. My band rocks, and I plan to keep doing it till nobody shows up to see it anymore.

The bigtime for you is just around the corner. They told me that first in 1952 - boy, its been a long corner. If I dont hit the bigtime in the next 25 or 30 years, Im gonna pack in the music business and become a full-time gigolo.

Rock 'n' roll was two pegs below being a prisoner of war back then.
