I have my own style, but it's different for each kind of music. There are certain little characteristic things every player has.

When I first colored my hair, my mother loved it. I got kicked out of school when I was 15, just for my hair.

Once I was playing and moving around and I fell right on my back. Just straight on my back. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life.

A lot of things just got distorted, like stories about each other. After the tour we never talked. I believe a band should be a band.

Blues teaches you to develop coherent solos, because the form you're playing over is so basic. You have to develop leads that go someplace.

When I got to LA and was with the James Gang, I got the opportunity to write a lot, to play in front of large audiences, make some money.

Lots of times it really doesn't matter what notes you play, but what notes come before and after a run.
