His life journey has also been epic, trying to follow his dreams, to quote him, David Bowie always told me to be my own man and try wherever possible to make the decision I felt was best for me and that is what I have tried to do.
The keyboard maestro has worked with more than 200 different artists performing on their records. These include Cat Stevens, Cilla Black, Elton John, David , Lou Reed, Black Sabbath, The Electric Light Orchestra and many more.
He has written three books and in his first, Say Yes he reveals his sense of humor, passion for golf and his personal belief in God. In it he says, I have a real passion for everything I do. My father instilled in me the need to enjoy the life you are given and God, very kindly and for reasons known only to Him, gave me a musical talent which has shaped much of my life.
