I don't think Marquee Moon was so good, y'know? Just another record. First records everybody likes a lot.

I don't want any production credit. I think producers are overrated. They're for people who, first of all, don't know anything about music or arranging and have no ear for their own doings. They can't tell a good solo from a bad solo, stuff like that.

I always thought I was commercial. I always thought I was writing hit singles. These days, whatever's on the radio is considered commercial. People like what's on the radio, whatever it is.

I don't think anybody thinks about their past much, unless they're in a mental institution.

Everybody's out trying to be commercial. I'm not trying to be anything, really.

I like thinking of myself as invisible. I find it a very advantageous way to live.

My non-career. My excuse for a career? Honestly, I never think about the word 'career.' I've had managers, the minute they say it to me, they look at me and just roll their eyes.
