“I’ve always wanted to do an album of the songs that influenced me the most.
It’s important music from another time. There is a whole generation, maybe two generations now, who don’t know this music. My whole idea here was to show them how it was and how we got here. Hank Williams, Jimmy Reed, Lloyd Price, Ray Charles. These songs take me to
my youth. They are good if not better
now than they were then, and they were great then. They are songs people
should just get to hear.”
