I bring a record home, and it connects with me like nothing else. In my ideal situation, somebody will do that with my record.

I am not immune to the lure of a signed record, flier or set list. The fact that your music heroes potentially had, in their own hands, the record you now have in yours is kind of cool. When the musician has departed, it can give the thing a unique power.

I miss the experience of walking into a record store and find old stuff without expecting to.

I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.

I'm really lucky that my record companies have been patient with me and leave me alone and give me the time to make it right in my mind.

I've sold my records outta shopping carts on the street.

It can get a little costly if you try and leave it until then to write songs. But you're writing all the time. You're collecting songs. I've had songs that have been collected over a two-year period for my next record.

Whenever I go to a new city, whether visiting or vacationing, I would always make that a point to get to the record store early on, just to get my bearings and see what was going on around town.

A good record transports you to another place.
