I was in the studio so much it was about the search for air in a metaphoric sense and the breathing has more to do with travel for me about the search musically for open air.
The technology is good and it's bad. You know what you're dealing with out there musically but my head stops at this electronic stuff. I don't quite know what I'm dealing with out there yet.
I wake up each and every day with a smile on my face knowing I get to do something musically.
Although they can do it all the time you know they're far better than me on a musically on a theoretical music level. You know they're out of my league.
I've programmed myself musically to come up with love-feeling tracks that are romantic sexy but classy all in one. And that's the challenge. Once I create that music then the lyrical content starts to come - you know the stories and things like that.
Music's been around a long time and there's going to be music long after Ray Charles is dead. I just want to make my mark leave something musically good behind. If it's a big record that's the frosting on the cake but music's the main meal.
We're five people five individuals who came together to create something to make music and to complete each other musically to form a perfect circle.
I don't want to limit myself musically. It would be really limiting if we'd neglect something we really want to do like explore other styles of music.
I was really into Black Sabbath but heavy guitars can really be very limiting it's a great frequency and it's great fun to listen to but on the other hand musically you can do a lot more without it.
I was always very grateful to 'em and am grateful to 'em now. I went back a couple of years ago and did their 20th anniversary show. But the longer I stayed on Hee Haw the worse things got for me musically.
