Blues musicians don't retire. They drop.

I learn everything I play by listening to somebody else.

Blues musicians don't retire. They drop.

What I do is when I go to the stage I forget about me.

I said, I'm going to stand up and somebody is going to pay attention to me.

Standing between these two guys you'd have to be me to know how I'm feelin'!

Someone told me once that blues is like whiskey. They keep whiskey in the barrel for so many years, and then they talk about how well it's aged. But I don't think that goes for him. I think this young man has just stepped in there sayin', 'I'm gonna prove you all wrong.' I think he's like a watermelon, man. He's ripe.
