"I love that Beatles song "The long and winding road". Apart from bringing back memories, it also applies to my life and how music has shaped and continues to shape it.

I was brought up thinking of career and success in terms of fame and fortune, but what has transpired is something far more valuable indeed. I was 18 when I walked away from a major record deal in London, and I've kept my distance from the industry ever since. Two reasons being that the mainstream music industry is not known for it's expansive views on the psychology of art and human evolution, and I'm not known for being a yo-yo. Our cultures need art to stay connected to it's initial inspiration.

Why lower your values to comply with mediocrity when you can raise spirits through the expression of your own unique TRUE NATURE. Our societies have a lot of evolving to do before the true value of true art is fully recognised and respected. Ironically it is art that must surely play a major part in our cultures growth. So, keep your art free. Let it be what is right for you, not what anybody else thinks it should be. If your honest with yourself and you work hard, it will come together and resonate with all kinds of people. They will derive what they choose out of it and you will be an artist in the true sense of the word. So the fidelity I have sought may not have yet brought mountains of cash or the red carpet stretch limo watusi, and even though I'm sure that can be fun  I have all that I ever really need anyway - inside."
