The first band I identified with from Chicago was the Muddy Waters band.
From Eric Clapton
I like solitude. I like the anomalous life. I like a quiet life.
One of the most beneficial things I've ever learned is how to keep my mouth shut.
My dedication to my music has driven everyone away. I've had girlfriends, but I always end up on my own. I don't particularly like it, but I don't see a way 'round it.
The point of being at home is to be with my family as much as possible.
It's very dependent on your state of mind. And your emotional state as well. And a lot of it comes pouring out, you don't really have that much control with it.
Risk is trying to control something you are powerless over.
An obsession is where something will not leave your mind.
Yeah, it is, because it's a real discovery of your inner resources, you know. That's what my character is all about and what my playing is all about. But to get up there and just go inside and draw out something that makes you feel good first and foremost.
When all the original blues guys are gone, you start to realize that someone has to tend to the tradition. I recognize that I have some responsibility to keep the music alive, and it's a pretty honorable position to be in.
