We had no sleep or days off or anything like that and then, when the band became big, Hendrix became a star and looked down at us lot.

On Ain't No Telling I came up with the bass solo.

My lady, Deborah McNaughton is doing a documentary on me.

My personal favourite is Jeff Beck. All the others are wonderful as well.

Hendrix rehearsed different drummers, before we met Mitch Mitchell.

Well, the first day we went through three songs, very basically.

I suppose the old natural stuff would be ok, the old mushroom, but I wouldn't advise anyone to do it.

I took up violin because my best mate had taken it up, so I did likewise.

I'd gone professional when I was about seventeen.

I came to join the Experience by going for an audition for Eric Burdon who was just forming the New Animals at that point, after the original Animals had broken up.

The Fat Mattress consisted of people I'd played with before joining the 'Experience and it was put together as a song writing situation.

Everybody was starting to grow long hair and wear pink suits and purple glasses and stuff and then, I suppose, some people thought we were crazy, but we weren't really crazy because we're all still here!

The first band I was in, I think was called The Strangers. I got the sack because I was too small!

At the age of nine, playing the violin at school, and then onto the mandolin.

I wouldn't know how I would have coped with The Beatles' sort of fame.

But people are now realising why I was playing bass with Hendrix.

Well, I'd had the Fat Mattress earlier as a writing outlet for songs and that.

It was rehearsing in the studio, at which point they were setting up the sound, and once we'd got the thing together they'd actually record it, without us knowing sometimes!

If you want something that's going to provide you with a lot of challenges and a variety of different things to do, then you really can't beat a place like the Air Force. I don't mean this to sound like a recruiting pitch. But it's been a lot of fun.

Most bands have a sound that they're already identified with, so for the producer it becomes a process of helping them find their muse in the studio to make a record that will not only satisfy them artistically, but will also do something in the marketplace.

Never play anything that don't sound right. You might not make any money, but at least you won't get hostile with yourself.

I don't want to sound pompous, but I really think your gender doesn't necessarily dominate your sexual activity.

You get a heck of a sound from the church. Can't you hear it in my voice?

It's clear to me that there is no good reason for many philosophy books to sound as complicated as they do.

I am not a sound bite person. I prefer to run at the mouth.

This is going to sound strange, but I really didn't think I would pass 30. I don't know why or whatever, I just didn't. That's a very weird thing to say, I'm sorry. I don't know. Maybe it's because I was drinking so much as a youth.

People say that I could sing the phone book and make it sound good.

Handcuffing the ability of states and localities to develop clean fuels in the cheapest possible way, using local resources, is not sound or sensible policy.

I don't know the vast majority of you personally, and it may sound kind of corny, but I really feel as if we've become friends through the years. And you've been with me during a lot of good times and some very difficult ones. I can't tell you how grateful I am.

In my fifty years of experience and memory, I have seen the most amazing increase in the standard of living of a people ever achieved anywhere in the world. This is why I am so sure that our system of free competition and industrial development is sound and must be preserved.

The soprano turned out to sound to me like the right hand on the piano.

I'd never try to be that distinctive from the Bee Gees' sound. I'm very proud of being a Bee Gee and am always aware that I'll be identified as a Bee Gee.

And I think I find, I know a lot of people around, in different cities, and so it's not - it might sound strange - but it's not that hard to say good-bye, because I know there's other people where I'm going. I can sort of fit in in a lot of places.

We suspect Dr. Clutterbuck's sense of hearing must be injured: for him the 'ear trumpet' magnifies but distorts sound, rendering it less distinct than before.

If you're not Prince, you're never going to sound like Prince.

From each one of them rose separate columns of smoke, meeting in a pall overhead, and through the smoke came stabbing flashes of fire as German shells burst with thudding shocks of sound. This was the front line of battle.

Sound is the vocabulary of nature.

I wonder what all those Chinese poets sound like in Chinese. I like their distilled quality.

Apart from a few simple principles, the sound and rhythm of English prose seem to me matters where both writers and readers should trust not so much to rules as to their ears.

Hillary Clinton bothers me a lot. I realized the other day that her thoughts sound a lot like Karl Marx. She hangs around a lot of Marxists. All her friends are Marxists.

It's rare that scenes last more than 2 or 3 minutes, so sound helps segue from one scene to another.

I started working on trying to sound like June from the very beginning.

When you're special to a cat, you're special indeed, she brings to you the gift of her preference of you, the sight of you, the sound of your voice, the touch of your hand.

My basic approach to interviewing is to ask the basic questions that might even sound naive, or not intellectual. Sometimes when you ask the simple questions like 'Who are you?' or 'What do you do?' you learn the most.

We wanted it more live and raw. We didn't want a studio sound.
