I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes, and the wonder of it all is you just don't realize how much I love you.

I grew up playing in clubs - that's my spiritual stomping ground.

I know there will be no more tears in heaven.

At first the music almost repelled me, it was so intense, and this man made no attempt to sugarcoat what he was trying to say, or play. It was hard-core, more than anything I had ever heard. After a few listenings I realized that, on some level, I had found the master, and that following this man's example would be my life's work.

And I don't like having my picture taken. I'm almost like an old African in that sense. I think it steals a bit of the soul.

An obsession is where something will not leave your mind.

My definition of Blues is that it's a musical form which is very disciplined and structured coupled with a state of mind, and you can have either of those things but it's the two together that make it what it is. And you need to be a student for one, and a human being for the other, but those things alone don't do it.

The only planning I do is about a minute before I play. I desperately try to think of something that will be effective, but I never sit down and work it out note for note.

Although they can do it all the time, you know, they're far better than me, on a musically, on a theoretical music level. You know, they're out of my league.

I just like the company of beautiful women. I have a weakness in that department.

I remember when I thought of singing as the bit that went between the guitar playing - something I couldn't wait to get out of the way. Singing was originally like a chore that I didn't really enjoy.

I always respected that B.B. sees music in a very open, free way.

When I look for what I'm going to listen to I go backwards. I'm always going the other way you see. Most people are trying to figure out 'how do I get in the fast lane going that way?'. I'm going in the other direction. I wanna find the oldest thing to do.

The first band I identified with from Chicago was the Muddy Waters band.

Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.

When I saw Jimi Hendrix I knew immediately that this guy was the real thing ... and when he played it was like a rough sketch of what he was going to become ... this guy was our generation, and he wasn't in a suit .. he played a Howlin' Wolf song 'Killing Floor', and then we (The Cream) had to carry on the set. It was pretty hard to follow.

Music survives everything, and like God, it is always present. It needs no help, and suffers no hindrance.
