Something To Think About

At the time of ‘Moondawn’, or ‘Body Love’, I even liked to listen to Dire Straits, J.J. Cale, even to John Denver. I mostly listened to the cassettes when I was traveling in the car during our concert tours. This had no influence on my own music. I can separate these things: listening to some music of the day, from the radio or else, and on the other hand: making my own music.
