I've Said That Playing The Blues Is

The Early Years When I Was Starting, Blues Player, You Wasn't Always Welcome In A Lot Of The Other Places. People Usually Have Preconceived Ideas About Blues Music. They Always Feel That It's Depressing And That It's Just Something That A Guy Sit Out On A Stool, Grab A Guitar, And Just Start Singing Or Mumbling Or Whatever.

I Don't Have A Favorite Song That I've Written. But I Do Have A Favorite Song: 'always On My Mind,' The Willie Nelson Version. If I Could Sing It Like He Do, I Would Sing It Every Night. I Like The Story It Tells.

If It Wasn't For The British Musicians, A Lot Of Us Black Musicians In America Would Still Be Catchin' The Hell That We Caught Long Before. So Thanks To Them, Thanks To All You Guys. You Opened Doors That I Don't Think Would Have Been Opened In My Lifetime. When White America Started Paying Attention To The Blues - It Started Opening A Lot Of Doors That Had Been Closed To Us.

Water From The White Fountain Didn't Taste Any Better Than From The Black Fountain.

You Never Miss What You've Never Had. I Never Had Any Other Life. I Didn't Know Any Other Life.
