I'd gone professional when I was about seventeen.

Everybody was starting to grow long hair and wear pink suits and purple glasses and stuff and then, I suppose, some people thought we were crazy, but we weren't really crazy because we're all still here!

I came to join the Experience by going for an audition for Eric Burdon who was just forming the New Animals at that point, after the original Animals had broken up.

My lady, Deborah McNaughton is doing a documentary on me.

Well, I'd had the Fat Mattress earlier as a writing outlet for songs and that.

We had no sleep or days off or anything like that and then, when the band became big, Hendrix became a star and looked down at us lot.

I suppose the old natural stuff would be ok, the old mushroom, but I wouldn't advise anyone to do it.
