The White Album is important to me for different reasons. One - I had left the band on the White Album.

I play weird. I'm always just behind. We [drummers] only have so much room. We're not guitarists.

America: It's like Britain, only with buttons.

Ten years from now, it'll all be the blues because that's the only speed I'll be able to play

Let's make my birthday, July the 7th at noon, Peace and Love Day. Everybody go, 'Peace and love.' In the office, on the bus, wherever. It's still peace and love for me, I'm a product of the 60s and it was a very influential period in my life, and you know, my head was turned around a bit, my eyes were opened as it were. In fact, I even have it on my arm, 'Peace and love'. I see nothing wrong with peace and love.

People in Liverpool don't move very far, you know.
