Pete Seeger is a modest, unassuming, cheerful, and kind-natured man. He's a good folk singer, if you can stand folk singing. And he's such an excellent banjo player that you almost don't wish you had a pair of wire cutters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Pete Townshend used to crash chords and let the guitar feed back. He's overrated.
The lead singer for Deerhunter, Bradford Cox... I don't like saying people are geniuses or whatever, but I just think that dude is so good at every single thing he does. He stays within his genre, but I think he does so well experimenting with stuff.
I do not sing nor play, but I adore music, particularly Chopin. I like him because I cannot understand him.
Everyone's different, but it was fun for me to work with Garth Hudson. He's from 'The Band.' They are a massive influence, that was a big thrill. He's completely out of his mind.
When Kenny first came to me, I think he was thinking of making a nice little folk record, but in my opinion, folk music had come to an end and I felt he needed to go to the next step, the next generation.
I am extremely proud and honoured to have beaten Pete's record as he was my childhood hero and I have always looked up to him.
I think he is an entertainer. I would prefer if he were a performer.
Charlie Christian played amplified guitar with Benny Goodman's quartet. He was the greatest guitar player that ever was. But he never looked up from the guitar. But I put a little dance to it. They appreciate seein' something along with hearin' something.
Chet Atkins... is probably the best guitar player who ever lived.
Nick Zinner has been one of my favorite guitar players for a long time.
