I didn't make my first solo record until 1981 so I don't have any 60's or 70's recordings but I am working on a large boxed set called DUST to be released next year, the 20th anniversary of my first solo record. ↗

I'd done recordings, little demos, since I was in college, which I used to get gigs. But I never thought I'd have a record label. ↗

When I'm alone at home, I really prefer to listen to Wagner's orchestral music rather than any vocal music. I find it illuminating not to have to pay attention to voices in the recordings. ↗

Quite honestly, if I were doing work related to a living being or historical being where there was visual or audio recordings available, I would find that extremely difficult because I don't know how you would avoid the process of mimicry. And mimicry, to me at any rate, is a very dull prospect. ↗

Sometimes in the past when I was going to perform a piece again I would listen to old recordings and try to reproduce the material. This time I realized that carrying around old information, trying to get everything in, and still be in the moment just doesn't work. ↗

I don't listen to recordings of my songs. I don't avoid it, I just don't go out of my way to do it. ↗

Singles needed to come back. And what I tried to do in my online experiment was to change the rules for myself and make available at a more regular pace the fruits of my labour, for people who decided they wanted to support my recordings. ↗

It was step by step that I earned my way into the lives and hearts of people by giving them recordings that I grew to love and as I found my listening audience also grew to love. ↗

I got more used to my own voice, but still it's hard for me to listen to my own voice, or hear the recordings. ↗

Nimbus is doing a great service with these excellently produced transformations of piano roll recordings. ↗
