I don't think about time. You're here when you're here. I think about today, staying in tune.

Groups are corporations now. They have pension plans. Musicians have saw the daylight.

I just get an idea and then all of a sudden I've got a song.

I do benefits. I do them all the time. There's so many people out there that needs help that I can't say I won't help them.

It's never hard to sing the blues. Everyone in the world has the blues . . .

I have heartaches, I have blues. No matter what you got, the blues is there. 'Cause that's all I know - the blues. And I can sing the blues so deep until you can have this room full of money and I can give you the blues.

I don't like no fancy chords. Just the boogie. The drive. The feeling. A lot of people play fancy but they don't have no style. It's a deep feeling-you just can't stop listening to that sad blues sound. My sound.
