If you're a pop singer, you don't need to evolve. You just get a set together, have some hit songs and play them over and over.

I'd come to the point where I wasn't really putting out creatively. I didn't seem to have anything to say in that period of time after the '74 tour. There was nothing definite that I wanted to record.

I never bought the commercial thing, at any stage of the game.

It's real difficult to pin down directions. I just want to do collaboration-tape stuff.

Love of the simple is all that I need, I've no time for schism or lovers of greed.

I shall drive my chariot down your street and cry hey it's me.

I'd been performing in bands since I was 12 which represented, at that point, about 16 years of playing music.
