I Don't Care What Anyone

I Remember The First Check I Got From The Who's Recording [of "young Man Blues"]. I'd Been Getting Checks For $10 And $15 And So Forth, And This One Was For A Much Larger Amount Than That. I Thought It Was A Mistake.

I Don't Care What Anyone Does, As Long As They Go Through The Copyright Office.

I Went Through The Whole Number, You Know. The Swing Era, The Boogie Woogie Era, The Bebop Era. Thelonious Monk Is Still One Of My Favorites. So A Lot Of These People Had Their Effect On Me.

I Never Sit Down And Write. I Just Sorta Let Things Form In My Brain.

I'm Always Storing Away Phrases And Ideas And Things That I Think Might Turn Into Songs.
