Even As A Little Child, I've Always

I Wanna Show That Gospel, Country, Blues, Rhythm And Blues, Jazz, Rock 'n' Roll Are All Just Really One Thing. Those Are The American Music And That Is The American Culture.

Johnny Guitar... Just One Of My Favorite Singers Of All Time. I Met Him When We Were Both On The Road With Johnny Otis In The '50s When I Was A Teenager. We Traveled The Country In A Car Together.i Would Hear Him Sing Every Night.

People That Can't Stand To Listen To The Blues, They've Got To Be Phonies.

I Sing The Songs That People Need To Hear.

I’ve Learned To Live With Rage. In Some Ways, It’s My Rage That Keeps Me Going. Without It, I Would Have Been Whipped Long Ago. With It, I Got A Lot More Songs To Sing.
