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

When I started workin' with Muddy. That convinced me that I could get away with doin' the blues.

I just like the blues better than rock 'n' roll

I'm not good enough to be playin' much acoustic guitar onstage. Man, you gotta get so right; I mean, the tones, the feel, the sound. Plus, acoustic blues guitar is just that much harder on the fingers.

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 think it will always be around it just takes one person to make people aware of the blues.
