“You know I never do anything by half. The costumes for the act are outrageous. I’ve had twelve, fifteen, any number made up but not just for myself - for the group too. I like to keep my band always well dressed, not like some other people I could mention! They are rather like astral “West Side Story” outfits, with sequins and short battle dress jackets, and long patent leather boots. I’ve also had my hair chopped off and I feel very butch now. I’m out all the time to entertain, not just to get upon a stage and knock out a few songs. I couldn’t live with myself if I did that. I’m the last person to pretend that I’m a radio. I’d rather go out and be a colour television set. Actually I’m a bit worried about the way that the band have fallen into it so easily! Remember they were into hard blues, but now they enjoy the costume bit.” -”
