I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I don't just play mechanically. I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I don't hear it then I can't feed myself.

All you have to do is play one note. But it needs to be the right note.

We tune down a full step when we play but I never miss a note. I've learned how to keep my voice.

Holding a note is a very difficult thing - you have to use your whole body to achieve a perfect pitch.

Writers have to have a knack for listening. I need to be able to hear what is being said to me by the voices I create.

I don't think you can contrive any sound.

I myself never make any notes. Usually, if I write something down, I can't read it afterwards.

The voice will guide you-will tell you what to do. In order to do that, you must be quite sensitive with the instrument and accept this daily conversation with your voice.

If I was hearing something I couldn't do, I would figure out how to do it.
