Get down with your old Allman Bros. records!

I don't do interviews at all when I'm on tour, so this time, on a day off, I'll do that kind of thing a little bit. I don't do big promotion schedules, not when I'm touring.

I like to think Duke Ellington would probably embrace a fragrance as well.

While it's a great indulgence, it's also very interesting to have three bass players on the same track.

I like L.A., but I shouldn't live there.

Sometimes you're quite fortunate, being on the stage, getting to meet people like Salvador Dali.

It's good having a lot of different songs to choose from to do the show. It means you don't get bored of doing it in one particular genre.
