break british-musician care job rules song
I don't care about the rules. In fact, if I don't break the rules at least 10 times in every song then I'm not doing my job properly.

I was really small when jazz broke through in England and I can still remember sneaking off to the living room to listen to it on the radio - much to my parent's disapproval.

I play the way I do because it allows me to come up with the sickest sounds possible. That's the point now isn't it?

There was mass hysteria in the Chess Recording Studio when I did the "Shapes of Things" solo ... they weren't expecting it, and it was just some weird mist coming from the East out of an amp.

against attempts beauty bits five four mix solo
Sometimes when I do an overdub solo, they'll keep four or five of my attempts and then mix the bits that they like to make a solo up out of them. It's not against the rules, really - I can learn my own solos, then. But that's the whole beauty of multi-track recording, isn't it?

I tell them, for a girl, juice up the price of a shot to $3. The bar's not losing any money over it.

It's rewarding to be here. The little kids just love it. The weather is cooperating and everybody is coming out to grab some eggs. It's just a few minutes but it's a lot of fun for them.
almost chopping crushed dangerous exact garage opposite steel studio
I like the studio because it's delicate; you're working for sound. I like the garage because chopping up lumps of steel is the exact opposite of delicate. The garage is a more dangerous place though. I've never almost been crushed by a guitar, but I can't say the same about one of my Corvettes.
