song couple memories
Again there are so many records which contain fond memories and music and songs of which I have to say I am quite proud. There are a couple of tracks which in retrospect on which I now wish I had pushed the red button, however I'm sure this is true of any artist career that has spanned the number of years that mine has. I do not believe however that I have ever made a bad record and I have certainly never made a record to which I didn't give my complete commitment.
successful differences rocks
As I said to Ringo, I was in a successful Rock N Roll band. He was in a band that changed the world. That's the difference.

The greatest music is made for love, not for money.

Songwriting is never one thing. I've spent as long as three months writing a song. Other times I've done it in twenty minutes.

band huge less living music people ten
The less people that are on the stage, there's more drama. You start living the music with each individual. When you see a band with ten people on stage, just a huge ensemble, you don't know who's doing what.
