I always felt if we were going in to do an album, there should already be a lot of structure already made up so we could get on with that and see what else happened.

There are very few people I can call real, close friends. They’re very, very precious to me.

There’s always music that moves me. It doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s within the parenthesis of rock or blues, or whatever. It’s usually far more reaching than that. It can be in many different genres.
