There's so many different styles and facets of the 360-degree musical sphere to listen to. From tribal to classical music, it's all there. If the bottom was to sag out of that, for God's sake, help us all.

Many people in the neighborhood liked hip-hop and house music, and I couldn't play that. You can't perform that on guitar or drums, which was what I was playing, at the time. But, I got so much from mariachi bands that were constantly playing in the neighborhood.

You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a specific moment is what drives it.

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.

So many people are frightened to take a chance in life and there's so many chances you have to take.

I can only listen to what I'm working on, at the time. I can't listen to anything else because I don't want to copy it.

Artists say that paintings are never done. I sort of feel the same way about music. I would never say something is perfect. There are performances that can generate a lot of emotion in me when I hear them, but I can't say if anything is perfect.

There's a certain standard in classical music that allows the application of the term genius, but you're treading on thin ice if you start applying it to rock & rollers.

Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.

The only term I won't accept is genius.

I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world. I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.

The gut-strung guitar, the classical guitar, that is a whole different world on its own. When you think what the guitar can do and what every individual player does with a guitar, everyone has their own identity coming through the guitar.

Crowley didn't have a very high opinion of women, and I don't think he was wrong.

There will be a Led Zeppelin as long as there's a Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant. This isn't a nostalgia band playing the hits forever. If anything ever happened and somebody left - which I really can't see happening - I don't think we'd bother to carry on. The magic for me is as it is now.

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

All my houses are isolated. Many is the time I just stay home alone.

I love playing. If it was down to just that, it would be utopia.

I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.

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

I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.
