Sometimes I had to room with Tony Kaye and that was awful.

A rock band used to be four guys and a drummer. Now it's five guys sitting around reading manuals!

You learn so much about music from all the people you surround yourself with - good, bad and indifferent. It's extremely hard to be specific.

We were from totally different social backgrounds. This is what is very hard for an American to understand, but we could have been five guys from Mars.

And I like messing around in the engine room of music. Seeing what happens in the rhythm section area.

I seldom play in a trio, but acoustic music is likely to be lighter, quicker, and quieter.

I practice at home, in between phone calls, and have much to do.
