I just can't stand jazz/rock. I think it's the worst thing that's come down the river yet.

I always record far more than I can use. There's probably twice as much recorded as comes out.

If the spirit comes through in a Madame George type of song, that's what the spirit says. You have very little to do with it. You're like an instrument for what's coming through.

Go up to the mountain, go up to the glen, where silence will touch you, and heartbreak will mend.

There's a lot of sub-conscious stuff you may write but you don't then suddenly sit down and take out your analytical books and say: I'm determined to find out where this came from. You'd probably be wrong anyway.

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

I'm very lucky, I'm happy with life because my experiences led me to do what I had to do. I don't have any regrets whatsoever.
