We fly out from Philly after the show down to Nassau Island, in the Bahamas. It’s been a long time since I had last been there, visiting Robert Palmer, who made the island his home for many years, during the making of ‘The Power Station’. When I last saw Robert he told me a funny story about myself that had always stuck with him. We had been driving the coast road from the airport to his house, and suddenly I had screamed, ‘Stop the car!’ and made the driver pull over onto the roadside. I had gotten out and ran towards what was, in essence, a tire store, called ‘The Wheel World’. “Here it is!’ I had exclaimed, excitedly,‘Every day someone says to me something like, ‘you don’t live in the real world,’ and I’m thinking, ‘what’s the real world?’ Well, now I know, here it is!…”
