I Can Never Make Up My Mind

When I Was A Teenager, I Really Didn't Like Loud Rock Music. I Listened To Jazz And Blues And Folk Music. I've Always Preferred Acoustic Music. And It Was Only, I Suppose, By The Time Jethro Tull Was Getting Underway That We Did Let The Music Begin To Have A Harder Edge, In Particular With The Electric Guitar Being Alongside The Flute.

Just Once I Would Like To Persuade The Audience Not To Wear Any Article Of Blue Denim. If Only They Could See Themselves In A Pair Of Brown Corduroys Like Mine Instead Of This Awful, Boring Blue Denim.

Martin, Dave, And I Get Together And Rough Out A Few Songs And Put Them On Cassettes For Some Reference...with The Actual Music, I'm Not Interested In Objectivity, Quite The Opposite. I Want A Solely And Totally Subjective Experience...a Lot Of Pop Music Is About Stealing Pocket Money From Children.

Not To Be Mean About It, But Some Great Rock And Rollers, Like Bo Diddley And Chuck Berry, Are Pretty One-dimensional.

It's Nice To Be Recognized, But It's Not Great To Have It Too Conspicuously Recognized, If You See What I Mean. Gold Records On The Wall, Or Titles After Your Name, It's Just Not Something... I Don't Feel That Great About It.
