Record Collector 1995

Interview / article from 1995

"When I started playing with the Blake Babies, I found that the vocal training I'd had was really useful, as it had strengthened my voice.  And the ear training helped me figure out a chord quicker than I would have done otherwise.  But I deliberately tried to keep a lot of the stuff I was learning out of my head when I was actually making music.  It can kill the mystery and the magic.  I don't always want to know what chord I'm playing."
