I'm going to win some Grammies this year.

In those days, man, in the '50s, black people in the South... We didn't recognize contracts that much. And we didn't recognize marriages that much, either.

When you think of blues, all you think about is crying guitar like B.B. King's guitar. You think about someone crying that their woman's gone. And how bad life is and all that. Why can't it be something happy with the blues? Why can't it have a hip-hop beat to which you can do the dances of today ?

I was familiar with Stevie Ray Vaughan because I listened to him. He played a lot of copies off of different guys' styles and stuff.

I'm using Fender Twin Reverbs and Fender Blues Devilles on stage.

Walt Disney got away with portraying me in the light that they were portraying me in. I have always been a fighter, so... But I have no regrets, man. It's just like God brought me through the drugs, I know he'll bring me through this.

I'm really thankful to God, man. Like now, I'm really making a real comeback with my group. With or without a record, with or without a movie. And behind all the negative press behind this movie.

I'm very fast on teaching guys. Like, when I came over here, I only had two rehearsals with the band. I wondered when I first got here... but it sure came up great.

T'aint nobody touch this next CD I'm going to come out with, and I'm saying that with ego.

Number one, The Ikettes have to be able to sing. Number two, they have to able to dance, and number three, they can't be fat. They have to be able to perform. Yeah, they could be sexy, it wouldn't hurt, right?

There's talent there, but it's like different from the old school where I came from.

Where's the talent at? There was a lot of people back in those days-Elmore James, Howlin' Wolfe-a lot of people in these days.

Piano's really my instrument, and that's what they'll see when I get to Tokyo this time. They never saw me play the piano.

They have all different names for music. I think the music I'm going to change the style with is going to be really, really big-years and years after I'm gone.

The basic tracks I originally cut on a computer at my house, and then I over-dubbed it live. But I got the feeling I wanted here on the computer.

Spector is a good guy, but he's a nut. Ha, ha, ha! You know, I love him, but he's unpredictable. He's OK as long as he don't drink.

In China, when you get to the airport everyone be talking in American slang.

Either accept people for what they are, or don't. So, in other words, man, if people don't know me, I think they do themself an injustice. Because, as a whole, I think I'm a good person.

I never did drink, but I went over on the other end, with cocaine. But anyway, God helped me through it, so today, I'm healthy and fine.

We're having time to give the younger generation today inspiration. Regardless of the obstacles that you have to overcome, how you can make it?
