My mother played piano so we always had music around the house

I always wanted to play music and have it be my career and knew this by the age of 12

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 blues was so big in the late '60s that it kinda wore itself out, and people weren't diggin' the blues as much.

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.

Derek Trucks is a real good new artist. He's a young guy.
