When I was about 12, I knew I wanted to be a musician. The blues had so much emotion and so much feeling; if you don't have that, you're not going to be good at it.

I love playing guitar. It's the only thing I've ever really been great at.

When I got old enough to go to night clubs to hear that music at the age of 15.

I like playin' for an audience the best, though, I think

Yeah, we went to England to do a show and I got off the plane and I couldn't write my name or hold my hand up.

The Progressive Blues Experiment, Johnny Winter... and Still Alive and Well is my favorite rock record

I think about legacy a lot, hopefully at the end of the day they say I was a good bluesman. That's all I want.
