Personally, I'm not very keen on the visualization of absolutely everything.

I just play intuitively and work the same way in the studio. I don't have any magical effects or anything that helps me to get my particular sound.

Adrian Maben came to us with the idea. And we just thought, "Well, why not?" I don't think any of us thought it would be as well received and last in people's minds for as long as it did. All credit to him. It's his idea [Pink Floyd at Pompeii] and it was great.

I don't like to get too specific about lyrics. It places limitations on them, and spoils the listeners' interpretation.

I haven't felt compelled to go back in the studio and do anything serious. I have a little sort of home studio thing which I potter about in occasionally.

Being a solo artist is what I do. It's what I've been doing for the last 20 years and a bit before then.

How much in life is determined, and how much is due to chance?
