“When I met him I liked him quite a lot. He was a good fellow, you know. I got to know him very well, I think, and I felt very close to him: you know how it is with some people, you feel for them, you feel near to them.
“He was born on February 28th 1943 [sic] and I was born on February 25th 1943, and he was with Mick and Keith and I was with John and Paul in the groups, so there was a sort of understanding between the two of us.
"The positions were similar, and I often seemed to meet him in his times of trouble. There was nothing the matter with him that a little extra love wouldn’t have cured.
"I don’t think he had enough love or understanding. He was very nice and sincere and sensitive and we must remember him like that because that’s what he was.”
