It was both exciting and frustrating to work with an orchestral group.

People often forget this - a vinyl album could only contain a maximum of 20 minutes per side!

When I left HEEP I didn't know what I wanted! It took me a long time to adjust to life away from the band and the only thing I knew was that I didn't want to repeat my mistakes!

I know why I am here and my only real focused goal is to live each day to the fullest and to try and honor God and be an encouragement to others. What the future holds is firmly in God's hands, and I am very happy about that!

If you want to capitulate to what commercial needs are, you can always be commercially valuable, but I'm not interested in being that.

I actually never knew Peter Green but I do respect his early work very much.

The band projects just took natural priority. I didn't really have a solo career, just wanted to share the music in another way and to learn more about writing, recording, etcetera.
