I just have a lot off different influences.

A young man ain't nothin' in the world these days

I do some concerts. At the moment, I'm being helped a lot by a gig I play in London, which is Pizza Express.

I told [my daughter Amy] at an early age that she had a good ear. But I didn't influence her music much. She's pretty much developed her style on her own, and she's a talented songwriter.

Everybody cryin' mercy / When they don't know the meaning of the word.

I'm happy whenever anybody does my material. I don't care what they do with it. I do what I want to with other people's songs.

I never thought I was playing black music. I was just playing music, the stuff I liked. I sang blues at parties and things when I was a kid.
