I Can Tell How Far I Ought

I Have A Voracious Appetite For All Things, Worldly And Unworldly.

I Played Guitar All My Life, All The Way Through The Yardbirds, But I Knew That For Me This Was Going To Be A Guitar Vehicle, Because That's What I Wanted It To Be.

I Remember One Particular Occasion When I Hadn't Played A Solo For, Quite Literally, A Couple Of Months. And I Was Asked To Play A Solo On A Rock & Roll Thing. I Played It And Felt That What I'd Done Was Absolute Crap. I Was So Disgusted With Myself That I Made My Mind Up That I Had To Get Out Of It. It Was Messing Me Right Up.

So Far I've Been Very, Very Fortunate Because It Appears That People Like To Hear The Music I Like To Play. What More Fortunate Position Can A Musician Be In?

Let's Just Say I'm Like A Ship Passing Through Storms, Resting In Ports Now And Then Until It's Time To Continue The Journey. I Once Told A Friend, `i'm Just Looking For An Angel With A Broken Wing - One That Couldn't Fly Away.'
