Obviously Classical Music Tends To Be Stuff

I Think Computers Have Changed Things Tremendously. At One Time, You Tended To Take The Rough With The Smooth. But Now, Because You Can Go Back And Stop And Start, And Have A Limitless Amount Of Tracks If Anything Looks Remotely Good, We Keep It. You've Got To Go Through The Agony Of Sounding Very Human At First, And Then You Work On It With The Aid Of Technology. Computers Have Revolutionized Things In Many Ways Allowing Me To Work To A Standard I Could Have Only Joked About Fourty Years Ago.

When I'm Recording, Which Is Synonymous With Writing, I'll Play Things Over And Over Again Until It Sounds Like I've Got The Right Guitar Part. Whereas I Think, As The Much Younger Player I Tended To Do Things Much More Consciously. I Didn't Wait For The Moment Where Inspiration Might Strike. That's What I Do Now. I Wait For It To Naturally Start To Replay Itself In My Mind. As I Say, I Don't Force It. So I Like To Think Of Myself As A Receiver. I'm A Telephone Line To Who Knows Where, But Until I Hear It Through That Receiver, I Don't Usually Do It. It's Got To Start Writing Itself Somehow.

It's Funny, When People Talk About The 70s I Can Tell You The Year Of Every Album But When It Comes To The Later Efforts I Can't Remember The Exact Years, It's Funny Isn't It?

Obviously Classical Music Tends To Be Stuff That Is Usually At Least A Hundred Years Old.
