Quotes - "Was Corporal Clegg on Saucerful Of Secrets a deliberate Hendrix-style sound that you were going for?"
- "No, not really. I didn't know what the hell I was trying to play at the time to be quite honest. I'd really no idea. What I was used to playing, the style I had, didn't fit Pink Floyd at the time, and I didn't really know quite what to do." - David Gilmour - Sounds "Guitar Heroes" Magazine, May 1983
