I love making records; I love making music; I love writing songs.
I'm a 50-year-old guy making music for over 20 years. I've been writing songs since I was 20, so it's really been 30 years, and it's always been personal, but I've always told stories.
I'm sick of being self-referential. I don't want to do any more songs that can be accused of being personal.
The second half of the '60s really was a kind of learning period, in terms of writing, for me.
My history is really playing live - not writing or recording.
If I were to do this over I'd play a lot more shows before I made a record.
The Rockwell magazine cover was more a part of the American reality than a record of it.
We really try to make sure that the band writes the songs, not just one person.
I've lost a lot more races than I've ever won... it's all part of the journey, really.
