“I started playing guitar back in '56. I was a teenager, and guitars ha...” — Roger McGuinn Quote

“I started playing guitar back in '56. I was a teenager, and guitars had just come in, and I had a thing for it and got one. Started learning lead breaks from songs, because that was the easiest thing to do at the time. I had the guitar for two years before I learned any chords. Really.”

“I'm a huge fan of home recording. I think it levels the playing field. You don't need $100,000 to record a studio CD.”

“I got into computers back in the early '80s, so it was a natural progression of learning about e-mail in the mid-'80s and getting into the Internet when it opened up in the early '90s.”

“The opportunity to write for the 'L.A. Weekly' has been one of the better breaks that has come my way in a long time.”

“The day breaks not, it is my heart.”

“When the body breaks down, it does not all go at once; it goes piece by piece.”
