Hearing the blues changed my life.

I been in the blues all my life. I'm still delivering 'cause I got a long memory.

So yeah, I am definitely a blues man at heart.

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.

The blues brings you back into the fold. The blues isn't about the blues, it's about we have all had the blues and we are all in this together.

I don't try to just be a blues singer - I try to be an entertainer. That has kept me going.

I had always intended to make a living out of playing blues. But I never admitted it to myself. I don't suppose I could have given a logical reason for it ever becoming possible to do so.

I love blues. My grandfather did blues.

The blues is life itself.

There were times I thought I was going to turn to the blues, but then I'd hear better blues players.
