It's not rubbish to say that I was a bit peeved about not getting credit for a couple of songs, but that wasn't the whole reason. I guess I just felt like I had enough. I decided to leave and start a group with Jack Bruce

Blues music is becoming more and more popular than it ever was. I'm always meeting people on the road that are really young, and are guitar players.... male and female.

These days there's so much technology and ways you can learn. There are videos and CD roms.

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

I suppose because I have a good ear, I could pick out harmonies and learn by ear... I still think that you have to have an ear for music to really be able to feel and understand what you're playing. You can learn by watching and listening to other people.

I certainly want to get back to the US to play. It's such a big country. I've always liked playing there, and enjoyed living there. I lived in New York, LA, and Florida.
