While I was with Procol Harum, the only time I'd see my guitar was either when I walked onstage or in the studio.

I remember the snow in Canada and the lovely weather in New Zealand. And I slightly remember going to school there.

I didn't sit down and work out other people's material; I've never believed in that.

If all you've got is somebody else's stuff that you've lifted, nothing really deep, then it is going to thin out.

I got a guitar when I was about 14, for a Christmas present, and went from there.

I don't tend to have a favorite album; I tend to have favorite tracks. There are flaws in every album that spoil it for me.

It's great to have something you can be proud of.
