Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself.

Prince is from the school of James Brown, and I love James Brown because of all the great rhythms he plays.

Jimi Hendrix came from the blues, like me. We understood each other right away because of that. He was a great blues guitarist.

Space music'd be really something... but they don't have no gravity up there. You couldn't have no downbeat!
