When you hear music, after it's over, it's gone, in the air. You can never capture it again.

Sometimes I'll listen to a little old Van Halen, or some Beatles, Zeppelin stuff, classical music... I like a lot of different things.

Everything has its roots in blues. I don?t care what kind of music it is.

When the record industry is identifying particular pieces of music on Napster, they're pointing to specific files and where they see a file name. But clever users of Napster are doing things like writing the name backwards or putting it in code.

What we'll find is that next week some of the music is gone. The week after that, even more is gone. And over the coming weeks and months, the music is gradually less and less appealing to music lovers.

For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.
