My whole career from the early 70s on has been mind-blowing. I didn't imagine in my life that I would ever be considered a guitar player first of all because I started off as a singer.

I spent a lot of time teaching myself theory and harmony so I could be free to express myself on the instrument.

There is no finer guitarist than Kenny Burrell

No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity.

I like Simon Cowell - look at how many great artists have come out of the U.K. because of him.

I have been doing music all my life so everyday when I get up I expect music will be part of it.
