The first thing I bought that was really stylish was in 1969 when I was eleven. I saved up for a black, grey and white tie-dye grandad vest. It was too big - they weren't catering for kids my age - and hung off me, but I loved it.

I'm so lucky, I'm just really grateful for what I've got around me - children and my wife and everything else.

I suppose I was much more serious-minded in the '70s and '80s.

Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.

If we get through for two minutes only it will be a start!

The Zombies were really unique - they had elements of jazz and classical music in their songs and songwriting. They had a very, very different sound compared to a lot of their contemporaries at the time.

It's always good to play New York. The Apollo is a great gig. I loved that.
