I Have Always Felt I Was More

My Emotions Are Very Simple And Always Have Been About The Hall Of Fame. It's Something That I Had Absolutely Nothing To Do With And Had No Control Over, So I Never Thought Much About It, To Be Frank.

I Like To Be Able To Come And Go As I Please, And I Don't Really Like Having My Face And Name Plastered Around. I Think It's A Bit Weird To Have Your Name Plastered On Every Page In A Magazine, Where In Each Case You're Using A Different Piece Of Equipment.

It's A Battle Between Record Company, Between Producer And Between Mastering Engineer. Because The Louder You Make Your Record In A Digital Process, The More Dynamics Are Squished Out Of It. Nobody Knows Exactly What Happens, But The Dynamics In The Performance Disappear, And Everything Is At The Same Volume.

But, I Would Be Naive Not To Recognize The Number Of Musicians Who Tell Me They Have Been Influenced By Me And Sight Me - As Well As Alex And Neil - As A Musician Who Has Been A Positive Influence On Their Playing.

I Feel Safe And Comfortable To Do That Once I Know That The Song Structure Around The Bass Part Is Very Interesting And It Satisfies Me In A Compositional Sense.
