I Get Very Frustrated By This Term 'genre Exercise.' I Mean, What Exactly Is That? Genre Is Not Really Relevant When You Are Writing A Song; Hopefully You Are Doing It To Explore Something, To Create Something, And I Don't Agree That Any Of My Albums Are Genre Exercises.

The Internet Is Overrated. It's Much Smaller An Innovation Than People Think It Is. I Don't Think It's Changed The Way Anybody Makes Music.

I've Been Lucky To Listen To Lots Of Different Types Of Music.

I Just Got Into It Like A Lot Of People Through The Rock 'n' Roll Bands In The Late '60s That Turned To Country Music, Like The Byrds And Buffalo Springfield, But Particularly Through The Byrds Because Of Gram Parsons, Roger Mcguinn And Chris Hillman (with Their 1968 Album Sweetheart Of The Rodeo). They Kind Of Introduced English Kids To Merle Haggard And George Jones And The Louvins (brothers Charlie And Ira).
