For me, if the music is good, whether the artist is famous or unknown, I love being part of the music and contributing what I can to the bass end.

Yes, alas, I've been on some recording sessions where the music wasn't good. Not so many, really, considering how many I've done. It's a very awkward situation because to do a recording well you focus on the positive of what will make the piece better.

From my time in 'King Crimson,' I'd describe a Progressive band as one that keeps trying to break musical barriers, and keeps trying to do new music.

Through the years I've found that I prefer live playing to recording. I still do lots of recording - but I treasure the live shows.

John was great to work with, and a lot of fun. I wish Id had the chance to make more music with him, of course, and to get to know him better.

Like many musicians, I don't look back much... only concentrate on what music I'm doing, and occasionally look ahead.
