Because the record companies, in their ultimate wisdom, seeing what a great thing digital was, they sold all the places where they made records. Now people want records and they haven't got a facility to make them in, so it takes months and months and months to get vinyl. Vinyl is ultimately much better.

I have no idea who's steering, and I don't really care .. I just keep going whatever the inclination is ... there are threads that are continuous and hold everything together and a major thread is country music.

All the girls over there in Ireland are well versed in American country music. Jim Reeves and Patsy Cline are like king and queen over there.

You can't ride the rails anymore in this country, but you can follow the Grateful Dead.

If fidelity really mattered, 'Loveless' wouldn't be one of the best records of all time.

I want my records to represent who I am, and I'm so fucking many things. And I also never wanna do anything that feels humble, because that would be performative.
