Maybe The Idea Of Me Is More

Elvis Might Have Compromised His Musical Style A Bit Towards The End, But That Doesn't Mean That Artists From The Rock N' Roll/folk-roots Culture - Of Which He Was Not Really A Part - Shouldn't Get Better As They Get Older, Like The Great Jazz Or Blues Artists.

I'm One Of Those People Who Just Doesn't Plan My Personal Life. I Plan My Professional Life.

I Think That We Have A Unique Opportunity As Performers And Artists To Be Kind Of The Town Criers And Also To Get More People To Listen, So That's A Blessing And A Responsibility That I Take Very Seriously.

I Can't Make You Love Me, If You Don't.

I'm Certain That It Was An Incredible Gift For Me To Not Only Be Friends With Some Of The Greatest Blues People Who've Ever Lived, But To Learn How They Played, How They Sang, How They Lived Their Lives, Ran Their Marriages, And Talked To Their Kids.
