This Really Blew My Mind,

I'm Really Still A Child Of The Forties. I Still Think About It A Lot, About The Repercussions Of Armed Conflict. Until 1953 We Had Rationing. We Couldn't Buy Meat, We Couldn't Buy Pleasurable Goods Like Cigarettes And Sweets. I Didn't Starve - My Family Were Lucky - But I Knew What It Was Like Standing In Line Waiting For Foodstuffs.

I Was In College, And Very Disappointed. I Majored In Commercial Art And Interior Design For Three Or Four Years. At That Time, It Seemed The Thing I Really Wanted To Do, Production Design, Just Wasn't Available In The U.k., So I Turned To Music.

My Voice? Yeah, Well, I Used To Drink A Lot Of Beer When I Was A Kid And I Sounded Like A Drunk In A Choir. I Don't Drink Anymore.

I Live My Life, Breathless... A Life Of Constant Motion And Excitement. A Life That Many Will Envy And Most Would Avoid!
