Two Men Look Out The Same Prison

Most Of My Early Records Were Not Cohesive At All, Just Collections Of Demos Recorded In Different Years. 'odelay' Was The First Time I Actually Got To Go In The Studio And Record A Piece Of Music In A Continuous Linear Fashion, Although That Was Written Over A Year.

In Japan, You Get On The Bullet Train Or The Airplane, And I Loved The Little Speeches The Stewardesses Would Do. They Even Do Little Speeches Before You Play Gigs.

Every Band I Knew Or Played With Had Flyers And Properly-recorded Demos And Contacts; I Couldn't Even Get A Gig.

There's A Different Physiology Happening Between The Sound Waves And The Body That Doesn't Happen With Music Playing Off The Computer. About Five Years Ago, I Got A Turntable That Hooks Up To Your Computer, And I Put The Vinyl In There And I Listened To It Back-to-back With A Cd, And It Didn't Even Compare. But People Don't Have Time To Go Track Down Vinyl, Lower It In, All That. And They Probably Don't Care. It's Hard To Make Music Knowing That It's Not Going To Be Received By The Listener In The Way That It Should Be.

I've Been Arguing With People For 10 Years About Tape Versus Digital, And I Believe Tape Is Absolutely Essential In Getting The Sound That's Conducive To The Enjoyment Of Music.
