I feel a real need to observe a level of propriety in what I'm handing out. Instead of me just venting or spilling my guts, I've got to consider how it's going to affect people. How it's going to affect me, as well. Because it's like a cycle.

I am, and always will be, a blues guitarist.

Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.

Like a fool, I fell in love with you, Turned my whole world upside down

I admire Eddie Van Halen and Steve Lukather, but they might blow me away quite easily if we were to jam together.

The music scene as I look at it today is a little different from when I was growing up. The percentages are roughly the same - 95 percent rubbish, 5 percent pure.

But the guitar, when you think about it, is the most versatile, really. I mean you can pick it up and take it with you wherever you go.
