Squeeze (The Velvet Underground album) basic tracks were laid down with drums and me. Ian Paice of Deep Purple played the drums. So he and I would lay down a track. How much interplay can you have when all it is one guitar or a piano? You can hear that, it's kind of dead. I think you get more when you have 3 or 4 people playing together, they feed off each other, they work together and something comes out of it, it's bigger." The eleven songs that make up "Squeeze" were written by Yule and recorded with the help of Ian Paice, with additional
Ian Paice Matteo Filippini. The band performs on a regular basis mainly in Italy. They have also released two studio albums on which Paice has guested. "Time to Take a Stand", which was released in 2006, featured two songs that featured both Paice and Glenn Hughes, performing together for the first time since 1976. The list of Paice's declared admirers includes Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith. On 21 June 2004 Smith and Paice joined forces at the launch of the London Drum Company. The next year they also played together at the Modern Drummer Festival at New Jersey Performing Arts Center.
