I've got a Range Rover. It's brilliant actually but it's manual.

I think that as you get older, you mellow out a lot more. Having been through the ups and downs in life, I feel more qualified to play the blues.

But I find that the keyboard is the complete instrument you know?

I'm not a country picker, really - I like a nice, beefy, raunchy sort of sound.

That's what I find with any good song, you just have to let it happen. Out of about twenty songs you might write, one of any significance. It might be thirty or forty, but I just keep churning them out and churning them out in hope that one of them will stick.

We just sang real simple songs in a simple way that got to people. We didn't try to tart them up with orchestral arrangements and all the stuff. We were all blues fanatics. We like R+B and blues and simple, gut-feeling music.

When I did it, I was a starving musician in London in a basement flat, but a simple tune with the right singer or the right situation can become very well liked and accepted. I'm only too pleased to say it happened with that one.

Since I've got on the Internet, it's opened a whole world of wasted time for me. My wife says she's an Internet widow.

I'm ready for some rock 'n' roll action.

This kid's excited because he's with Bad Company and I'm excited because I'm with Chuck Berrys' son.
