It is not the money but the self-respect and wanting to create good music.

When you are in your 20's and 30's, you just want a hit record and you don't really care how it happens

You are never really prepared for criticism.

Now there is a new group every week; it seems like everybody and anybody can get into the charts.

I've never been into parties, premieres or night-clubbing

By going solo I could lose a fortune but money is not important.

I have a little dictaphone and if a sound takes my fancy or if a lyric comes to me in the middle of the night I'll just record it there and then.
