I open events for museums and I do charity work and photography.

I have no restrictions , no limits, no musical history to live with.

You’re always frustrated, you don’t have the chance to do a song on the album, like the Beatles did with Ringo and George, or like Led Zeppelin, where everybody was given a chance to contribute....

I try to listen to the music channels but you hear stuff where people sing terribly out of tune and they play the wrong notes and chords.

You can go to art exhibitions, from van Gogh or Leonardo, you can see the whole history of art in museums and exhibitions. You can see the oldest film that was ever made, etc etc,...

I have found two Roman sites in the area that I live in.

I always listen to a lot of different music when I am working on a project.

I didn’t want to stay in the Stones, and be stuck in a position having to play a music I didn’t like anymore and that restricted me from doing all the others things I’m interested...

I always say that I am very proud of the work that I did with the Rolling Stones and that I am also proud of what I have done with the Rhythm Kings.

When you pick it up you realize that you are the first person to touch that object since someone left it there 800 years ago.

I always got great respect as a bass player.

So I was releasing this tension with my solo albums, but I didn’t want to play music just for money.

Our first time in America wasn’t a very good tour because they didn’t know us because we hadn’t had a hit record.
