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

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

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

I think that the blues is in everything, so it's not possible to neglect it. You hear somebody go 'Ooh ooh oooh,' and that's the blues. You hear a rock n' roll song. That's the blues. Somebody playing a guitar solo? They're playing the blues.

If they played more blues, people would just get it - they try to hold it back but just about can't hold it back now because the blues is really going.

Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.

I think the blues is fine for blues players, but free blues has never made much sense to me.

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

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