Paul, how long have you been in the music business?
For about 20 years I guess. I've never had another job. No. Never. I've only been a musician.
How old were you when you started playing?
It was when I was just a kid I taught myself to play. I tried a few instruments. First, the drum. That was when I was only 5 in 1981. After that, it was the piano and then later keyboards.
When did you start playing professionally?
While I was still at school. I left school at 16. I was playing in a band, working on Saturday evenings in pubs and clubs. When I left school my only ambition was to be in a pop group.
