chuck player
I am like a songwriter/guitar player without a band, like Chuck Berry.
eighth folk grade heard mary paul playing singing until
I got out of Grade school. I was in the Eighth Grade and I started playing guitar. I was into folk singing - Peter, Paul & Mary - until I heard the Beatles.
playing rehearse songs time
What I don't like is getting over and not having enough time to rehearse properly. Just because they know the songs it's not like playing the album.
sorrow thou thy winter
Thou hast no sorrow in thy song, / No winter in thy year!
case hear listen mtv music watch wrong
I watch a lot of MTV - you know I see too much, hear too much. I try not to listen to too much music in case I pick-up the wrong thing.
spring years joy
Now spring returns; but not to me returns The vernal joy my better years have known; Dim in my breast life's dying taper burns, And all the joys of life with health have flown.
disappointment fall evil
But evil fortune has decreed, (The foe of mice as well as men) The royal mouse at last should bleed, Should fall ne'er to arise again.
spring return
Now Spring returns; but not to me returns.
writing iceland play
I do like to write but I also like to get and out and play. I am losing track of all the Cooper versions that I do - I have one for Iceland, different one over here.
hate wish months
Towards the end it got really rough. I take my hat of to Alice, he's still doing it. This is probably more work than going on the road for 2-3 months. I wish I was 25 again!
song baby nice
I remember we were out on the road when the album finally came out in February 1973. I listened to it in my hotel room and just got this really big smile. I was thinking, 'It's amazing, we're really pulling this off'. The album was very, very unique and very, very different. I was really proud of the songs, especially 'No More Mr Nice Guy', 'Billion Dollar Babies' and 'Generation Landslide'.
dream morning fate
Oft morning dreams presage approaching fate, For morning dreams, as poets tell, are true.
kissing together band
It's a gamble. A band like Kiss, a lot of those are our audience but we don't do as much make-up. Alice would have more to lose if we got back together.
