Quote

I do not worship the devil. But magic does intrigue me. Magic of all kinds. I bought Crowley's house to go up and write in. The thing is, I just never get up that way. Friends live there now.

I always thought the good thing about the guitar was that they didn't teach it in school.

There's music that can affect people in their lives, and they will always relate to the point that they heard it and experienced it, either if you're playing it or you're receptive, as an audience.

But to put out a greatest hits on one CD was totally impossible, I just couldn't do it. The best compromise was to put out two CDs - Early Days - which is what it is - and Latter Days.

I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.

The idea of a hypnotic riff as the prime mover of a piece of music has been around for a long time, whether you're talking about the Delta blues or music from Middle Eastern and African cultures.

Let me explain something about guitar playing. Everyone's got their own character, and that's the thing that's amazed me about guitar playing since the day I first picked it up. Everyone's approach to what can come out of six strings is different from another person, but it's all valid.

I'm over 30 now, but I didn't expect to be here.

The element of change has been the thing, really. We put out the first one, then the second... then a third LP totally different from them. It's the reason we were able to keep it together.

From the classical guitar right through to the furthest electrical experiments and everything in-between, it's amazing what the guitar can actually do. I mean, when one thinks about sounds.

You know what you can gain when you sit down with the Moroccans. As a person and as a musician. That's how you grow.

You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.

You don't find geniuses in street musicians, but that doesn't mean to say you can't be really good.

If you're working at the factory and you're cursing every day that you get up, at all costs get out of it. You'll just make yourself ill.

I think it's time to travel, start gathering some real right-in-there experiences with street musicians around the world.

My guitar style was developed during that 10-year period. That's me. That's the way I play, and I don't wish to play any other way. Our own individual identities are firmly stamped on this album.

Every record is a portrait of the band at that time.

The beauty of the band was you never knew what was going to come out next.

I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.

I had another idea of getting a traveling medicine wagon with a dropdown side and traveling around England. That might sound crazy to you, but over there it's so rural you can do it. Just drop down the side and play through big battery amps and mixers and it can all be as temporary or as permanent as I want it to be.

Every musician wants to do something which will hold up for a long time, and I guess we did it with 'Stairway to Heaven.'
