I think to be a good songwriter, you have to be able to play an instrument.

Unfortunately I was in New York when 9/11 happened.

There are people who'll dismiss me as 'just' a singer. That's how it is, how it's always been, but just because I'm not hunched over a piece of paper with a pen in my hand doesn't mean I'm not putting in the graft.

Making music, if you're a real musician, you carry on regardless in this world.

I've been touring now since about '68.

I'm no good at breakin' off with people.

When I used to put an album out, I knew everyone on the charts. There weren't that many bands. Now, I couldn't even name half the new groups.

It's interesting, as I said on the last tour in America, the audience actually came out, they had to have been the kind of fans who listened to my music via their parents, you know what I mean?
