We heard a story that John McLaughlin, you and Jeff Beck were all recording on David Gilmour’s boat in London. You were producing Jeff at this point [for an unreleased album]. What happened to the tapes?
“What happened back then was John had written a piece for the three of us to play, but it ultimately didn’t work out. Jeff ’s just trying to find his way and I was trying to help him as we’re friends – he’s my favourite guitar player in the whole world. I volunteered to help him and we checked out a whole bunch of stuff. Some of the stuff we did on Gilmour’s boat was pretty amazing; I was surprised he never wanted the stuff to come out. But he got into this techno thing so I respect him for that. I’m sorry it didn’t work out as I thought we did some pretty cool stuff.”
