When you are through with the blues, you've got nothing to rest on.

I still like to play the blues more than anything else.

Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.

Yes, there's a lot of the blues in my playing.

The blues is like a planet. It's an enormous topic. You can't ignore the impact that it has had and continues to have on the whole musical culture. It's a tree that everyone is swinging from. Without it, I don't know where I would be. It's indelible and indispensable.

To me, blues is more of a feel and a vibe, rather than sitting there and saying, 'Well, I'm gonna play bluesy now.'

The blues is played everywhere. There's no place I've been where they don't have blues or aren't interested in blues.

Getting to play the blues has been transcendant for me. I can't say if my finest hour is yet to come, you want to make a dent in this world, well I do anyway.
