Looking back, I think I was always musical. My dad was very musical, and I think my mom was musical.

Groups break up because they never got across what they wanted to do personally, and they have creative differences, and egos start to clash.

Someone like John would want to end the Beatle period and start the Yoko period. He wouldn't like either to interfere with the other.

The stores and the things like that, the business side of things came out at the point when, I'd say probably in the early '70s, it looked like the year of the singer-songwriter was over, 'cause music changed in our time and the spotlight was out.

Most people like working, but they'd also like to have more time with their family or to pursue their own interests.

If the phone doesn't ring, it's me.
