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.

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

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

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

The piano is kind of my second instrument.

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.

This amateurism however, can sometimes be helpful in forging a style; you have to work around your weaknesses.
