I've been touring now since about '68.

I toured in Europe first, before I did any touring in the U.S. It was with Jimmy Nail and others.

I did a long concert tour in England and Denmark and Sweden, and I also sang for the Soviet people, one of the finest musical audiences in the world.

When I stopped touring in the early '80s for a few years, it was a mistake looking back. I lost touch with my audience in a way and I think that was a bad career move.

I had to go to Europe to tour and he died on the second day of the tour.

Now, I was the Summer Concert guy. I played every Summer concert there was.

My first ever tour of my music was in the Netherlands. I didn't really have a grace period to grow or anything; people just started booking for me. I feel pretty lucky.

I remember a tour where we played 50 cities in 56 days. We also went to Europe a couple of times.

I started touring a little bit in 1973 in support of a record I made for an independent label. In 1975, when I signed with Warner Bros., where I remained happily ensconced for the next 24 years, my touring activity increased considerably.
