So There I Was In Hollywood, Thinking

Give Me A Guitar And I'll Play; Give Me A Stage And I'll Perform; Give Me An Auditorium And I'll Fill It.

I Remember When I Thought Of Singing As The Bit That Went Between The Guitar Playing - Something I Couldn't Wait To Get Out Of The Way. Singing Was Originally Like A Chore That I Didn't Really Enjoy.

The Blues Are What I've Turned To, What Has Given Me Inspiration And Relief In All The Trials Of My Life.

One Summer I Remember, I Got Exposed To Chuck Berry And Buddy Holly And Buddy Holly Was A Very Very Big, Made A Very Big Impression On Me. Because Of A Lot Of Things, You Know, The Way He Looked And His Charisma.

I Have Always Been Resistant To Doctrine, And Any Spirituality I Had Experienced Thus Far In My Life Had Been Much More Abstract And Not Aligned With Any Recognized Religion. For Me, The Most Trustworthy Vehicle For Spirituality Had Always Proven To Be Music. It Cannot Be Manipulated, Or Politicized, And When It Is, That Becomes Immediately Obvious.
