When You're Around Someone Good, Your Own

I'm Definitely Not A Guy That Comes In The Dressing Room Saying, "hey, Everybody, What A Wonderful Life." I'm Usually Brooding About Something I Think Is Wrong. I Care So Much About Getting The Music Right, And If I Think Someone's Slacking I Get Very Upset About That. I Just Can't Go On Stage And Say, "another Day, Another Dollar," Which I've Heard A Few People Say: I Can't Go Along With That At All. It's Got To Be As Good As You Can Do - To My Own Detriment.

I Don't See Myself As Such An Important Guitarist.

I Had Given Up The Guitar Between '75 And '78. I Completely Lost Interest. I Was Sick Of Hearing Other Guitar Players And I Was Tired Of My Tunes.

When I Was 20, I Didn't Give A Damn About Song Construction. I Just Wanted To Make As Much Noise And Play As Fast And As Loud As Possible.

I've Always Thought That I'm Not Really A Guitar Player, But I Just Practised So Much That I Developed Into A Kind Of A Bit Of A Musician, But I've Often Doubted My Musical Ear. If Someone Sings Me A Melody, I Have To Improvise On That Melody, Because I Can't Retain The Information They've Given Me. That's Why I Still Practise Today, I Suppose, Because I Still Feel Inadequate.
