I don't play with a lot of finesse. I usually play like I'm breaking out of jail!

When I play from my mind I get in trouble.

The way people come into your life when you need them, it's wonderful and it happens in so many ways. It's like having an angel. Somebody comes along and helps you get right.

I use heavy strings, tune low, play hard, and floor it. Floor it. That's technical talk.

I kept listening, kept going to see people, kept sitting in with people, kept listening to records. If I wanted to learn somebody's stuff, like with Clapton, when I wanted to learn how he was getting some of his sounds - which were real neat - I learned how to make the sounds with my mouth and then copied that with my guitar.

I've put my life back together, but it's all a growing process and that's neat, too, because if you stop growing, what good is it musically? So that is what I am looking forward to - growing. In some ways, I felt stagnant in my life and it showed.

Looking back in front of me, in the mirror a grin. Through eyes of love I see, I'm only looking at a friend.
