years rehearsal wonderful
Live Aid did feel like one hour's rehearsal after several years, but to be part of Live Aid was wonderful. It reall was.
song years watches
(The Song Remains The Same) is not a great film, but there's no point in making excuses. It's just a reasonably honest statement of where we were at that particular time. It's very difficult for me to watch it now, but I'd like to see it in a year's time just to see how it stands up.
years play feelings
Sometimes, I must admit, I'd like to have a second guitarist onstage with me, but it wouldn't look right. I'd like to play for another 20 years, but I don't know... I just can't see it happening. I don't know why. It's a certain foreboding... a funny feeling... vultures.
guitar years play
My guitar style was developed during that 10-year period. That's me. That's the way I play, and I don't wish to play any other way. Our own individual identities are firmly stamped on this album.
music years determined
... you never knew what was going to happen in concert. It was a really exciting prospect to go onstage, and you can hear that in the live recordings ... wherever we were and whatever year it was, we always went onstage determined to do our best ...
years guitar my-favorite
My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.
albert days jamming kept later paris saw
I saw them at Albert Hall, and two days later I went to see them in Paris and we were jamming together, ... The thing is, we kept having shows.
british-musician
I don't think the critics could understand what we were doing.
british-musician music
I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.
album consciousness constant general musical point reflected state
We were in a constant state of musical growth. Each album reflected the general consciousness that we were at in that point in time.
reading rooms staying
Nowadays, we're more into staying in our rooms and reading Nietzsche.
confidence gives wait
This gives me a lot of confidence in myself. I'm excited, and I can't wait for the years to come.
bootleg damage fence finger funniest hear listen nerve playing remember ripped time tours wait wrong
The funniest thing is I listen on some of those bootleg albums, and I remember on two tours I wasn't playing with one finger at all because I'd done damage to it. One time I'd ripped it on a fence or something, another time I got it crushed. So when I hear a wrong note, I think wait a minute... But, I wouldn't have the nerve to do it now.
guitar play people
Many people in the neighborhood liked hip-hop and house music, and I couldn't play that. You can't perform that on guitar or drums, which was what I was playing, at the time. But, I got so much from mariachi bands that were constantly playing in the neighborhood.
