Blues musicians don't retire. They drop.

I've never missed a gig yet. Music makes people happy, and that's why I go on doing it - I like to see everybody smile.

It's kind of hard to keep going sometimes but you just have to believe in what you are and what you can do and that's the way to success.

I learn everything I play by listening to somebody else.

I didn't look up and say, "Oh, man, if I learn how to play a guitar I could make not much money, but I'd make a decent living like Eric Clapton or somebody." There wasn't nothing like that out there.

I can't learn nothing from listening to me. That's something I already know.
