By the law of averages, there has to be life elsewhere. The universe is so huge, and I don't think God would have created this whole big huge cosmos and just say there's only going to be life on Earth, and that's it.
We visited Ravi. We didn't study with him, as such.
I went to Berlin to study psychology but decided that I was more interested in music and started an R and B band.
I had toured so much in the 1960s and 1970s that I wanted a break. I didn't go back touring until 1995.
My goal is really to continue to make music. I really don't make music to have platinum records and all that kind of stuff. I've been there. I do it because I love music, and I love uplifting people through my music. That's my real goal.
Music is an extremely powerful force if used properly to uplift people. I believe music should be uplifting and not downgrading... it's a very, very powerful tool.
I didn't develop or build synths. I had my technicians modify them for my live stage performances.
I scored a movie called 'Endangered Species'. I worked on another movie called 'Staying Alive'. A German film called 'Fire and Ice'.
Unfortunately, music devolved instead of evolved. The music business got into the hands of lawyers and accountants rather than the entrepreneurial creative people, and that's when the beginning of the end started. It's all based on money instead of art and creativity.
As a kid, I used to love to play baseball and be in Little League and sleep outside with my friends and do all those kind of things.
After the first day, I come in and I am angry . I was in a foul mood. Somebody would say something and I'd bite their head off.
Jeff is a great player and a great ambassador for American International hockey. His play on the ice mirrors his conduct off the ice, and his offensive play and improvement we look forward to seeing this season.
Our happiness usually is conditioned by the kind of home, job, car, clothes, etc., we have, which in a way makes us slaves to matter.
We're on top of each other. It's very crowded.
