[in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine] I had piano lessons, which I hated, [but] my mother decided I was going to have [them]. I didn't want piano lessons; what damn good would they do me?

I was never really a mod. I thought I was more of a beatnik with the brown corduroy jacket, blue jeans, etc. I loved the music Mods liked and I loved the clothes, but I didn't have any money to spend on them. [on the 1960s London mod scene]
