I've Had A Hip Replacement,

I Started Doing All Kinds Of Weird Stuff On The Guitar, Which Became Part Of My Playing. I Started Doing Harmonics And Tapping On The Guitar And Pulling Off Strings And Doing All This Weird Stuff That No One Had Ever Done Before.

The One Thing I Do Have Is Good Ears. I Don't Mean Perfect Pitch, But Ears For Picking Things Up. I Developed My Ear Through Piano Theory, But I Never Had A Guitar Lesson In My Life, Except From Eric Clapton Off Of Records.

Some People Think A Song Without Words Isn't A Real Song. Tell That To Beethoven And He'll Kick Your Ass!

Eventually You'll Take The Phrases And Rhythm Patterns You've Copped And Begin To Put Your Own Mark On Them

I Went To The Zoo One Day And Saw A Chimp Playing With A Beat-up Acoustic Guitar In A Way I Had Never Seen Before. Instead Of Using The Pick The Chimp Was Banging The Neck And Tapping It With Its Fingers. I Knew The Chimp Was On To Something So I Practiced This New Technique In My Room For Hours Until I'd Perfected It.
