My Finger Picking Is Sort Of A

I Think It Was That We Were Really Seasoned Musicians. We Had Serious Roots That Spanned Different Cultures, Obviously The Blues.

But To Put Out A Greatest Hits On One Cd Was Totally Impossible, I Just Couldn't Do It. The Best Compromise Was To Put Out Two Cds - Early Days - Which Is What It Is - And Latter Days.

Music Can Always Be A Life-changing Experience, For Musicians And Fans, Or At Least Life-affecting, But It Depends On To What Degree.

When I Went Over To The States To Promote Outrider, Everyone Was Telling Me I Was A Blues Guitarist. I'm Not A Bloody Blues Guitarist. I'm A Guitarist.

My Vocation Is More In Composition Really Than Anything Else-building Up Harmonies Using The Guitar, Orchestrating The Guitar Like An Army, A Guitar Army. ... I Always Felt If We Were Going In To Do An Album, There Should Already Be A Lot Of Structure Already Made Up So We Could Get On With That And See What Else Happened. ... I Always Believed In The Music We Did And That's Why It Was Uncompromising. ... I Don't Think The Critics Could Understand What We Were Doing.
