So For A Long Time I Closed

I Don't Know How Much More Expressive You Can Get Than Being A Rock And Roll Singer.

Don't Be Hard On Yourself. And Take As Many Chances, Risks, As You Can. You've Got To Be Out There Adventuring With The Voice. Because If You're Just A Singer For The Sake Of It, It's Not Quite Enough.

I'd Break Out In Hives If I Had To Sing (`stairway To Heaven') In Every Show. I Wrote Those Lyrics And Found That Song To Be Of Some Importance And Consequence In 1971, But 17 Years Later, I Don't Know. It's Just Not For Me. I Sang It At The Atlantic Records Show Because I'm An Old Softie And It Was My Way Of Saying Thank You To Atlantic Because I've Been With Them For 20 Years. But No More Of `stairway To Heaven' For Me.

My Vocal Style I Haven't Tried To Copy From Anyone. It Just Developed Until It Became The Girlish Whine It Is Today.

There's A Similarity Between European And North African Folk Musics.
