I think you are right. Rock'n'roll, however exciting, should be a
phase through which one p***** on the musical journey.  The
thought of getting locked into a "three-chord time warp" is not
one that I particularly relish:-)


Perhaps I reached my peak as a rock'n'roller in 1972. I
tagged along when my girlfriend Jane, a cellist, was invited
to a Glam Rock garden party given by Gary Glitter in
