I've Always Wanted The Sound Of Muddy

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.

Musically, He Was Like An Old Man In A Boy's Skin.

I Saw You Walking With Your Other Man Today. If I Catch You One More Time, I'm Gonna Blow You Both Away.

I Tried When I Was 13, When My Grandparents Gave Me An Acoustic Guitar, And I Tried For A Year. It Hurt So Much To Play. I Mean, The Fingertips Hurt So Much, I Gave Up.

The Music Scene As I Look At It Today Is A Little Different From When I Was Growing Up. The Percentages Are Roughly The Same - 95 Percent Rubbish, 5 Percent Pure.
