I like to play things that people understand, or maybe tunes that they could recognize. And so — I play for the people, just as much as for myself. Because, as I say, I still like to play.

If you try all different styles that are in vogue, I think you con yourself. Me, I just stick by my guns I don't want to play out of another man's bag.
