Don't get me wrong, I've seen some very excellent women musicians.

I need that aggressive attitude to play my music and more men have that attitude than women.

But when I record my next studio album, of course I'll do the lead vocals.

I'm not much of a club goer because every time I do go I get in trouble.

I've got a great place, it's a country house.

I loved Herman's Head. And it was a great experience.

I didn't tour Europe, because I didn't have any label support.

I like to travel. I love touring, I love playing.

I'm happy when I'm doing what I do best.

We've got horse property and there's other stuff to do. Like, four wheel driving, we barbeque, drink beers, sit around and play guitars and have a merry 'ol time.

Stiletto, I look at it more as an attitude as opposed to a high-heeled shoe.

You're stuck in front of the microphone. You can't use your hands. I like to do things.

I think it gets boring (for the audience) for the lead singer to have a guitar hanging on them all the time.

I don't smoke, so they never sent me a copy.

I have no skanky guys in my band nor on my bus. If they are they get the boot real quick.

It's nice when they say I inspire them, it inspires me.

Life has become serious for me, although I do like to party every now and then.

But duets are a lot of fun, I'd love to do another one.

It's better for me to play with guys because Rock 'n' Roll has such an aggressive attitude.

Don't get me wrong, I've seen some very excellent women musicians.

We don't have a lot of neighbors so we can blast the stereo.

You can never learn it all and I hope to continue my growth as a person and a musician.

I have a lot of female fans.

I worked at the cosmetic counter at a fine department store.

I was eleven and I wanted to play it because it was in my blood. It was a feeling I couldn't deny.

I did play every little note on the guitar on that record.

Joe Walsh is a great guy and and an unbelievable talent, I'd like to work with him again someday.

That's Tommy, this great producer who comes in contact with people and must have a mental library of personnel who are great for this and great for that, and he brought this whole group of musicians to the project that I'd never worked with before.

Every musical movement that is big enough has to produce some good musicians who wouldn't have had the incentive to start playing without it.

For years the Trio did nothing but play for musicians and other hip people. We practically starved to death.

The kind of music or the kind of arrangements that I do, the kind of musicians I choose, is just what I like to hear.

When we started making electronic music I imagined that the reaction we got from the rock musicians must have been similar to the one the beat groups got from people like my dad.

We were brash young fellows'. I was always hanging with the older crowd anyway. The musicians were the Hip Cats, and I was hanging with them anyway. I Just started out real early.

You can have all sorts of relationships, but there's something with musicians working together where you can have relationship that can just continue to grow in a beautiful way.

Most musicians count at the beginning, and never count and talk to their musicians after that. They only talk to them at the end of the song. But I would count with them and talk.

It's my fault in many cases because I don't initiate the contact to talk with a lot of other musicians.

Musician jokes are a kind of joke that usually have to do with how much money someone makes. Musicians are always starving, so they're really mean to each other about who makes what.

What 'jazz' means to me is the worst kind of working conditions, the worst in cultural prejudice. The term 'jazz' has come to mean the abuse and exploitation of black musicians.

We wanted to guide the musicians, so we could create our own sound. We would never let the band just go in and play the chord sheets. We were very focused on what we had in mind for these productions.

I don't take compliments very easily. I think most musicians suffer from low self-esteem to some extent.

I'm always going to get more of a charge playing Chicago than I will Duluth or some place like that. Just because of the history and the people there are way more knowledgeable than a lot of other cities. It's an amazing music scene with some great bands and great musicians.

Watch MTV and you can see what the music scene is like in England. The Spice Girls? Not a lot of creativity in the commercial area. There are still great musicians in England, but not a lot being heard that much.

Success breeds volume, and it's just amazing how many young writers, artists, and musicians there are in town.

At the art college in Edinburgh someone arranged for some London groups to come up and play. I was in a supporting band, with Bernie Green I think. Derek Bailey was one of the visiting musicians. He seemed to like my playing and asked me to come down to London.

Out of doing all that experimentation with sound I decided I wanted to do it with live musicians. To take repetition, take music fragments and make it live. Musicians would be able to play it and create this kind of abstract fabric of sound.

But, I would be naive not to recognize the number of musicians who tell me they have been influenced by me and sight me - as well as Alex and Neil - as a musician who has been a positive influence on their playing.

We're not spokespeople, we're musicians.

I was afraid the other musicians might want to present themselves too much, though I see in the coverage I've received of the album that the musicians got wonderful reviews for their contributions and abilities. I think the four musicians played freely within my limits.

I only choose musicians who I think will emerge, can emerge, with their own character, while still going along with the tune in question.
