Things like three guitars basically doing very similar things which we've often stripped away and left one. You end up willing yourself into the holes. When referring back to their own albums the three of them seem to disagree on what made each album good. If one person said 'Hey, I think we should not have any drums on this one' and everybody else would go 'Marvellous', then there'd be no drums and the track may not be right. But somebody else might say 'No no, I disagree, we should have a bulldozer on there', and the others say 'Well, I don't know', so we'll try it, and that's the sort of bubbling hot house of ideas I'd like to keep going.
Some people have to really swallow their pride.
I'm doing nothing more than a few bird noises on one number, but my guitar part was not right for the track, so it went. And that could have been a bass drum turned up. Oh I'm not doing anything on this track'. Everybody bows to the song and not to the ego of the player. Andy later confided that he'd be happy to eventually not play anything at all on the albums, but just see the song through to perfection.
