“The Hollies, after I left in 1968, had the audacity, the gall, to have three num…” — Graham Nash

Martin guitars have now brought out, you know, on a more traditional level, the Stephen Stills' model of Martin guitars. It's beautiful. I just went inside. I bought one immediately.

I mean, there's times to rock and roll, and I love that too. But I think my first love is acoustic music.

Just with the basic one guitar, one piano and one vocal and an audience, I think that the intimacy comes through more. People feel much more connected to the song because there's nothing in the way, and I actually enjoy doing that.

I only do solo albums when songs are screaming at me to be let out of my mind.
