You're always frustrated, you don't have the chance to do a song on the album, like the Beatles did with Ringo and George, or like Led Zeppelin, where everybody was given a chance to contribute. There never is a chance with the Stones.

I'm not a musician, I just play bass.

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.

It's all right leaping about the stage when you're 20 but when you get to 25 it gets a bit embarrassing

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 open events for museums and I do charity work and photography.
