He Said, I Would Like You To Go With Me And Sit In My Living Room With A Guitar And Two Microphones And Just Sing To Your Heart's Content Everything You Ever Wanted To Record.

I Felt A Force Bigger Than Myself Saying, 'lay Back. Take It Easy. Study Hard. Read Your Bible. Think, Write And Keep Your Mouth Shut For Awhile.'

I Wore Black Because I Liked It. I Still Do, And Wearing It Still Means Something To Me. It's Still My Symbol Of Rebellion -- Against A Stagnant Status Quo, Against Our Hypocritical Houses Of God, Against People Whose Minds Are Closed To Others' Ideas.
