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

My first album was completed in three months.

My first album didn't come out until I was 27, which in pop years is late, you know. But when it came time to arrange it, I became a kid in a toy shop. I had a harp and a saxophone quartet and a symphony orchestra. I went berserk for a time.

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

My first album is a lot of my personal experiences. I wanted people to relate to what I've been through.

I always wanted to have my own album released before I graduated from high school.

I feel that my playing on the first album was probably some of my best.

My first album was me finding myself and my voice, finding how I sing. I was rolling with the punches because everything was new to me.

In the '80s, I was putting out an album virtually every year, I think mostly based on fear - that if I didn't, people would soon forget about me.

My first album was called 'Badlands,' and it's something that I think I'm most proud of having done in my life.
