If I had a free afternoon, I would play music, sit in my backyard, and drink coffee.

I told him I wanted a large front porch where I could drink coffee and play music. Mary wanted a screened-in back porch. And, we needed living space in between.

I've been performing since I was a child; my mother would have to pull me aside and tell me that I wasn't onstage. I was a cheerleader, president of choir, and in the school play.

I wanted to play music. I didn't think about where it would go or what it would do.

Musicians should not play music. Music should play musicians.

We went in the studio ... to make music. And I think Neil liked that. When he came down to play on one song, he stayed roughly for about three months.
