It was just moving, right across the whole of the evening's event

and I must say that being here in a college

Not such a bad thing because I learnt from records

Along the way I became a, I think you call it a side-man here, a session musician

would play across quite a wide variety of music

It wouldn't be, like, if you were a guitarist
