I don't think rock 'n' roll is necessarily a young man's game.

I can't even picture being without rock 'n'roll.

The spirit of rock 'n' roll is alive and well. It kind of just needs to be cultivated a little bit.

Rock n' Roll came from the slaves singing gospel in the fields. Their lives were hell and they used music to lift out of it, to take them away. That's what rock n' roll should do - take you to a better place.

I grew up in a world that told girls they couldn't play rock 'n' roll.

Maybe rock 'n' roll isn't music. Maybe people just need to be reminded that the world ain't the way they think it is.

I think a lot of people came into rock n' roll to try to change the world. I came into rock n' roll to make music.

These days, rock 'n' roll is much more about rock than about roll. I don't do rock. But I'm interested in that roll part, because that's the funny little bit that makes it hip.

If there was no black man there would be no Rock'n'Roll. The beat, the rhythms of Africa are what created Rock'n'Roll and Jazz.
