Drummers haven't managed to develop their individuality quite as well as guitarists have. We can be so focused on the nuts and bolts that we overlook the importance of individuality - the broader picture, if you will.

I warm naturally to the drummer whose ideas and approach are strong, even if he doesn't quite have the ability to carry them out.

I didn't write any music at all, and then, I remember Jon Anderson being very insistent saying that there were two kinds of musicians: the ones who wrote music and the ones who didn't.

My harmony is passable but is usually made more eloquent at the hands of Steve Hamilton.

I don't really remember a whole lot of sex, drugs and rock n' roll, really.

Plus I am being hounded by all the fabulous new drummers, Bill Stewart at the head of the pack.

One of the great things about having good players in your band is that you just ask them questions. You can pick up some good information that way.
