But the approach to recording this album was kind of an organized, chaotic approach where I wanted to maintain and preserve that wild abandon to creating.

The first album I bought with my own money was 'A Hard Day's Night.'

And then the last album, 'Get It', was done over a shorter period of time and I started using other musicians, as opposed to playing all the instruments myself like I did on the other two.

My first album didn't come out until I was 26.

I've just got to get that album out. I have to get it out, if it's the last thing I do.

My first album done what it had to do. It introduced me.

I had no album title, and the album is like a journey in that it's a complete body of work. It's not just a couple of catchy songs and filler, so I felt that I needed to capture the essence of the album.

The first bit of vinyl I bought was Michael Jackson's 'Bad.'

So I went out and bought Hard Again by Muddy Waters. That was a big learning curve. I listened to that album again and again and again. James Cotton was the harmonica player on that album.
