I think I deliberately sold out a couple of times. I picked the songs that I thought would do well in the marketplace, even though I didn't really love the song.
But the guitar, when you think about it, is the most versatile, really. I mean you can pick it up and take it with you wherever you go.
It was a mystery to me, how the tuning was, or the style seemed to come out of nowhere, it obviously had roots in America going way back, there was nothing like it for me I'd ever seen before.
The blues are what I've turned to, what has given me inspiration and relief in all the trials of my life.
The toughest thing about being a celebrity, I suppose, is being polite when I don't want to be.
It was stumbling on to really the bible of the blues, you know, and a very powerful drug to be introduced to us and I absorbed it totally, and it changed my complete outlook on music.
