"Today's music is technically perfect, but it seems as though once it's off the radio, it's gone forever. I feel especially blessed to have come up in an era of great music that is essentially timeless. An evening of my music in a club situation consists of me performing "non-stop" familiar songs that mean a lot to me, and everyone else connected with those periods of time. I'm at my best when people are involved and singing along. I never really know what's going to happen next......., everybody having fun is the important thing!".
