"Simon, what a pleasure it was to work with you, your input really took my latest album to another level entirely. You have the rare gift of being a perfectionist and yet easy-going at the same time - something I've only seen in the best and most mature musicians in this business. It's good to be a small part of your story because, I believe your work is going to take you far, and many of us are going to be saying "I remember when...". All the best in all you do, your pal, Bruce"
