Interviews
David interviewed by Dutch Magazine 'Muziek Express', October 1973
"I started singing 22 years ago at the age of 5. My mother was singing in a Jazz band, my whole family was into music. Everybody played a instrument or was tap dancing. Around that time I tried to get famous by a childrens TV show. My first band had no name, did no gig's and lasted exactly 2 weeks. When I was 16 a local band offered me a job. I did one gig with them and joined the band of Mick Box, which then was called The Stalkers. They had fired their vocalist and at the audition I had to sing Johnny B. Goode. I was hired right away."
Interviewed by Dutch Magazine 'Muziek Parade', October 1976.
"The fact that we would produce ourselves was because of bad sales of 'Return to Fantasy' in the USA. With 'High & Mighty' we wanted to go in a new direction. The problem was we used just one source. And we had just little time to be in the studio because of the extensive touring. We decided to put all Ken's songs on the album, and hoped it worked out the right way. I think though we should have used everyone's songwriting. That's why 'High & Mighty' is a bummer to me. For example, Mick Box played just a few parts on the album."

Famous quotes containing the word interviews:
“What a perpetual disappointment is actual society, even of the virtuous and gifted! After interviews have been compassed with long foresight, we must be tormented presently by baffled blows, by sudden, unseasonable apathies, by epilepsies of wit and of animal spirits, in the heyday of friendship and thought. Our faculties do not play us true, and both parties are relieved by solitude.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If the justices would only retire when they have become burdens to the court itself, or when they recognize themselves that their faculties have become impaired, I would grieve sincerely when they passed away, and you would not feel like such a hypocrite as you do when you are going through the formality of sending telegrams of condolence and giving out interviews for propriety’s sake.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
