I never advise anyone to sacrifice something else because of music, but then I don't see why they would have to anyway.

It's frustrating actually, the time involved in getting something released these days. My new CD has actually been finished for a year. It's only now that it's being released

What I've always lacked is a really strong band to back me up.

I was very influenced by Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix. ...both of whom I had the pleasure of playing with and becoming friends with.

I had to learn chord shapes... I bought books with chord charts. I used to listen to all kinds of pop music.

Maybe if I go far enough back into my ancestry, I have African roots or something. I've got no idea

The Stones are a different kind of group. I realized that when I joined them. It's not really so much their musical ability, it's just they have a certain kind of style and attitude which is unique
