“I usually license my stuff to a label. Make the album, license it to a...” — John Waite Quote

“I usually license my stuff to a label. Make the album, license it to a big label and get it back after four years.”

“I don't know really, apart from Barnes & Noble, where you buy CDs anymore.”

“I think rock 'n' roll is very visual. All of the best bands, like The Stones, The Who and Small Faces, were very valid both musically and visually.”

“I decided I couldn't ever again deal with the megabusiness end of the music business.”

“We'll just tour til we drop; at certain times in your life, that's the only answer.”

“I really don't align myself with anything.”

“I find it quite difficult to think that there's, you know, about 20 million people listening to my album that I wrote very selfishly to get over a breakup. I didn't write it being that it's going to be a hit.”

“I was never in a hurry to make my first album. I knew I wouldn't do it until I knew exactly what I wanted it to be.”

“To produce a proper album, you have to be in the studio and collaborate with all your singers. It takes a lot of time.”

“Out Demons Out' by the Edgar Broughton Band is a good album, and they had fantastic hair - so much that you couldn't see their faces at all. But the most triangular haircut in rock belonged to Mick Box, guitarist in Uriah Heep. He had that thick, slightly curly hair that was so dense it was out in a huge triangle by the time it got to his waist.”

“To take a whole load for a whole album on yourself is very challenging and kind of hard to execute when you don't have a reputation as a producer. If you do it for fun, you get a good outcome.”

“I hope that what you take away from my album is not just the music - which I did want to be fun, and I did want it to be about individuality, but please also take away from it that there's no dream that's too big.”
