I don't make any money.

With the Rhythm Kings, I can involve myself in arranging and producing the music as well as the choice of songs.

I'm not an upfront person. Being upfront is not my forte. I'm quite happy to stay in the back there with the drums, where I belong.

When I record in a studio I don't use an amp. I go directly into the board, so I can get that very fat, full sound - which is my favorite sound.

I always listen to a lot of different music when I am working on a project.

I'm always shy in front of an audience, so I'm always at the back, in the shadows, just doing it. I don't like the front, the adulation.

There are things that I am very proud of and there are things that you are not so proud of. But I think that applies to any musician.
