So, I really don't consider myself a fabulous keyboard player.

But, I would be naive not to recognize the number of musicians who tell me they have been influenced by me and sight me - as well as Alex and Neil - as a musician who has been a positive influence on their playing.

I liked the fact that I was forced to get inside of my emotions and to really try to figure out a lot of what I was going through.

Invisible airwaves crackle with life Bright antennae bristle with the energy Emotional feedback on a timeless wavelength Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free

There was a time when fast playing and fretboard pyrotechnics on the bass were important to me and when I am recording a bass track, that is still very important to me.

It's hard for me to just practice without writing something.

That is what intrigues me; songwriting and song structure and expression.
