"Life is neither a glorious highlight reel nor a monstrous tragedy. Every day is a good day to live and a good day to die. Every day is also an apt time to learn and express joy and love for the entire natural world. Each day is an apt time to make contact with other people and express empathy for the entire world. Each day is perfect to accept with indifference all aspects of being."

"I was considered as a jazz man rather than as a blues player. There were no blues players-you played one sort of jazz of another sort of jazz."

"The parallel development in American blues to the British movement has resulted in Johnny Winters."

Alexis Korner
"The British feel of blues has been hard, rather than emotional. Far too much emphasis on 12 bar, too little attention to words, far too little originality."

Attention

Alexis Korner
"In those days, between the ages of 12 and 18 you meant nothing. You were the extra place at the side table if someone came to dinner. You were of no interest to anyone."

"I guess music, particularly the blues, is the only form of schizophrenia that has organised itself into being both legal and beneficial to society."
