Part of the reason that I moved to Los Angeles is that even though my mom introduced me to all kinds of music, I really wanted to work on having my own identify, on being who I am and doing what I do, and seeing how people responded.
It's just better to be yourself than to try to be some version of what you think the other person wants.
For me, the lame part of the Sixties was the political part, the social part. The real part was the spiritual part.
