The ball bounces on the floor and then the game starts and it's a different way around the court for each song. And so that's what I really love that. Doesn't that mean I love playing blues?

Size of production I could do and the kind of money I could spend on producing new records. All of that income is gone. Gone. It's just, and that was a substantial chunk. It went from like three or four million dollars a year to me at the just 90 cents a record out of the $15 they're selling it for the dollar 27 plus your publishing plus the performance.”
