Tuvimos una buena conversación con Ryan Adams en 2001, después de haber publicado su disco "Gold". En la entrevista Ryan habla sobre Ana Frank y Sylvia Plath, sobre grabaciones digitales y análogas y los Stones y los Beatles:

"I think the Rolling Stones were more interested in rhythm and blues and rock and roll. The Beatles were functioning more as a band being magical, interesting and beautiful. One's not better than the other. It's two colors in a rainbow. You can't say orange is beter than red. Dammit, they're both beautiful!"
