Eddie Van Halen Was Probably The Most

The Feeling You Get From Playing To A Good Audience Is Hard To Describe Without Sounding As Though You Are Talking Silly. But Reaction Is Important. You Might Feel In Yourself That You're Doing It Ok But It's When You Get The Live Reaction That You Know You're Doing It Right.

For Me, I've Never Talked About My Private Life. It's Always Been About Black Sabbath. It's Strange To Open Up And Talk About Me As A Young Lad, My Relationships, Marriages And What Not.

I Didn't Follow Any Rules At All. I Made My Own.

I Was Mostly Surprised By The Rap Artists, Actually, That Were Influenced By Sabbath. That Was A Surprise. But It's Very Nice And I'm Very Honoured. It's Nice To Know After 27 Years Now That What I Said In The First Place Has Stuck, And That Was The Belief In It.

My Early Influences Were The Shadows, Who Were An English Instrumental Band. They Basically Got Me Into Playing And Later On I Got Into Blues And Jazz Players. I Liked Clapton When He Was With John Mayall. I Really Liked That Period.
