I Saw You Walking With Your Other

Given The Choice Between Accomplishing Something And Just Lying Around, I'd Rather Lie Around. No Contest.

Very Much Like That, And Very Much A Loner, Do You Know And I Didn't Fit Really Into Sport Or All Kind Of Group Activities As A Kid, I Couldn't Find A Niche. And Music Was Not Really Part Of The Kind Of Village Curriculum It Would, You Know.

I Mean, It Didn't Matter To Me That There Were People, It Didn't Matter That I Was Shy Just The Sound Was So Captivating That It Helped Me To Get Rid Of Those Inhibitions.

It's Very Difficult To Explain The Effect The First Blues Record I Heard Had On Me, Except To Say That I Recognized It Immediately. It Was As If I Were Being Reintroduced To Something That I Already Knew, Maybe From Another, Earlier Life. For Me There Is Something Primitively Soothing About This Music, And It Went Straight To My Nervous System, Making Me Feel Ten Feet Tall.

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