| # | Quote |

| 1 | My dad had an old guitar and he showed me two or three chords, so I practiced them and sang to try to emulate my cowboy heroes Gene Autry and Roy Rogers. Then, when I was about 10 or 11, I learned that you could play "up the neck", so that kept me busy for another couple of years. |
| 2 | I started playing the bass strings as they made more impact - especially when amplified - but you had to have a strong riff or melody, and that's what I did - and I played it with authority and feeling. |
| 3 | Hank Williams was my mentor, really. He said to get your own style and do it with authority. Some people didn't get it, but I understood what he was getting at. |
| 4 | On Hank Garland: He'd work a country session for Stonewall Jackson during the daytime, then go out and play astounding jazz in a club at night. And he wrote one of the all-time great country instrumentals with Sugarfoot Rag. That's the first I heard of him: playing Sugarfoot Rag on the Opry, just driving the folks wild. |
