No, I Don't Like Recording.

I Can Think Of A Lot Better Things To Do With My Hands Than To Cut Them Up On The Rim Of A Drum.

But, When You Have To Resort To Turntables, Trick Lights, Flashing Lights, Fire And All That, You're Actually Saying, I Need This Because What I Do Is Not All That Together.

I Play A Percussion Instrument, Not A Musical Saw; It Needs No Amplification. Where It's Needed, They Put A Microphone In Front Of The Bass Drum. But, I Don't Think It's Necessary To Play That Way Every Night.

I Think At One Time Every Drummer Wanted To Play Like Krupa Or Wanted To Win A Gene Krupa Drum Contest. This Is The Big Inspiration For Drummers And Naturally It Has To Be The Same Way For Me.

Every Drummer That Had A Name, Had A Name Because Of His Individual Playing. He Didn't Sound Like Anybody Else, So Everybody That I Ever Listened To, In Some Form, Influenced My Taste.
