When I got back from doing the HORDE tour with Crazy Horse, I had written a couple of songs. So when I got home I figured the best thing to do was to record them right away. So I went into the studio a couple of days after I got home and recorded three or four - i think Silver & Gold, Without Rings and three or four others that I didn't use. And then I was going to make an acoustic album called Acoustica which I worked on developing ideas for, and I did a lot of recording for, where I was using tiny little instruments that I wanted to mic really well and make them really loud. And try to get in really close to get a different texture in the music. But I never could get what I was looking for. I'm going to try again sometime later.
