Gaps can be very emotional. I mean, that's in my drumming. When I drum, you know, I don't need to drum all over the track. I play with the singer and I can back off.

I hate click tracks. I'm to busy in the click track to feel my own heart rhythm, my own soul beat.

I feel the older I get, the more I'm learning to handle life. Being on this quest for a long time, it's all about finding yourself.

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

I've been asked to write my autobiography and really they only want 8 years (1962-1970), and I keep saying it would be five volumes before I even got into the band!

I have no anonymity.I've not had a drink in nine and a half years. That's my whole story right there.

You got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues...And you know it don't come easy.
