The Past Is A Stepping Stone, Not

It's A Shame To See These Young Chicks Bungle Their Lives Away In A Flurry And Rush To Compete With What Was In The Old Days The Goodtime Relationships We Had With The Gtos And People Like That. When It Came To Looning, They Could Give Us As Much Of A Looning As We Could Give Them. It's A Shame, Really.

I've Still Got A Twinkle In Me.

I'd Break Out In Hives If I Had To Sing (`stairway To Heaven') In Every Show. I Wrote Those Lyrics And Found That Song To Be Of Some Importance And Consequence In 1971, But 17 Years Later, I Don't Know. It's Just Not For Me. I Sang It At The Atlantic Records Show Because I'm An Old Softie And It Was My Way Of Saying Thank You To Atlantic Because I've Been With Them For 20 Years. But No More Of `stairway To Heaven' For Me.

I Am A Reflection Of What I Sing. Sometimes I Have To Get Serious Because The Things Ive Been Through Are Serious.

I'm A Grandfather Now.
