Sometimes You're The Windshield; Sometimes You're The

A Strat Was A Thing Of Wonder .. When I Was 14 Or 15, The Shadows Were A Big Influence, And They Had The First Strats That Came To England. I Like To Play All Kinds Of Guitars, But I Wasn't Getting The Sound I Really Wanted Until I Got A Stratocaster

My Idea Of Heaven Is A Place Where The Tyne Meets The Delta, Where Folk Music Meets The Blues.

I'm Not A Collector, However, And I Have No Desire To Own 50 Or 60 Guitars.

Well, I Was Born In Scotland And Spent The First Six Years Of My Life There. Then I Went To Newcastle-on-tyne In Northeast England, Close To Scotland.

As Far As Being A 'player's Player,' You've Only Got To Go To Nashville Or Argentina And You Can Forget About It. The World Is Full Of Amazing Guitar Players, And You Know It, And I Know It...it's A Humbling Experience.
