• When receiving a CBE at Buckingham Palace: "I had a rebellious streak in me. As a kid I would not have been able to accept this. I was very immature about the way I looked at that. I was against the establishment. Now I have grown up, I really think it is an important thing to be able to set an example of some kind."
• "Since I got sober, I've just been trying to develop...a career with dignity, records where I can say, 'I finished it, it's complete. Whether or not it's up to the standard of the current thing, it's complete."
• “It’s been very important throughout my career that I’ve met all the guys I’ve copied, because at each stage they’ve said, ‘Don’t play like me, play like you.’”
