I'm just trying to avoid any sort of generic kind of music - I don't want to do generic jazz or fusion.

The thing about photography is, some people surround themselves with extremely strong subject matter. And unless you're a moron, you're going to get a really strong photograph.

I would like to play with electronic keyboards again.

Aping what you've already done is just so dangerous and unrewarding.

There is always the working out of things, and you have to have sort of a gut response to it. And an intellectual response. And an aesthetic response. All that comes from having done this for a long time. Instead of saying, "That's a really good rock track, and that will do," I'm looking for something that is more original and fresh. There are a lot of elements to get into it: a level or sophistication, passion and excitement.

I was totally into jazz in my teens.

I don't have a great nostalgia for the past.
