| 1 | [on his performances] Everything is by ear. When I was a teenager learning solos from Merle Haggard records or trying to figure out Django Reinhardt I realized that I could hum and visualize improvising. It clicked when someone told me to play what I could sing or hum and try to do it spontaneously |
| 2 | [on most of his shows being solo performances] I realized I could probably make that work overseas because I couldn't afford to fly ten people around. So I've done a lot of that since I first started playing North America in the 1980s. Now I'm looking at playing more in South Africa, East Asia and South America. |
| 3 | I like all kinds of music as long as it's got soul and it's telling people something. But the greatest thrill is playing your own songs. |
