I tend to be a jam-band fan, and I love the Rolling Stones.

The Stones are great and always have been. Jagger's lyrics are just amazing. Right on the ball every time.

I've got an article where my mum says that I used to run home from school to watch the Stones on TV. Right from when I was at college I wanted to be in that band.

The Stones were nasty and ugly and doing songs I was familiar with.

I sat through Ladies and Gentlemen, the Rolling Stones like three times at the Skyway when it came out.

The Rolling Stones have been the best of all possible worlds: they have the lack of pretension and sentimentality associated with the blues, the rawness and toughness of hard rock, and the depth which always makes you feel that they are in the midst of saying something. They have never impressed me as being kitsch.

The only band that we have never played with but have always wanted to is the Rolling Stones.

But, you know, the Stones were my opening act in the Sixties. I loved those British guys, the way they just stood there and shook their hair.

I got to play on a couple of records with the Rolling Stones, and that was really special to me.

I was a huge Beatles fan. The Stones, Dylan. Later on, I got into Stevie Wonder, and Bill Withers - he's one of my heroes. Al Green, too.
