Close to the Edge, Red, One of a kind, Discipline, Earthworks, The Sound of Surprise, all seem to me to be albums that captured the essence of the intention.

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.

We used to drink an awful lot of alcohol.

If I was hearing something I couldn't do, I would figure out how to do it.

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

But what I think my emphasis is, is on the fact that I like music a lot.

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