I was always more interested in the ultimate live performance rather than the recording for its own sake. And, for the audience too, that thrill of - just being there.

Through the years I've found that I prefer live playing to recording. I still do lots of recording - but I treasure the live shows.

I'm still amazed by the process of recording.

If I think about the way I was drawn into the music, it was much more by recordings than by live performances.

I think we were probably playing live for about 12 months before we got a recording deal.

Making the record was tons of fun, the most fun I've ever had.

It was a world that I wanted to record because it was such a miracle visitation to me.

Nothing could be recorded in those days except by aiming a movie camera at the television screen. It was at least another 10 years before they had any kind of recording medium.
